I’ve traveled to 6 continents and over 30 countries, yet my “to-go” list continues to grow. So to keep learning about new places and inspiring myself and you to keep traveling, I’ll add a new awesome place each week for Wanderlust Wednesday!

Nobody likes insanely over-crowded beaches and negative amounts of parking spaces. Especially when it’s eight-thousand degrees outside in Southern California and all you want to do is shimmy down to your swimmies and (possibly) go into the freezing cold Pacific Ocean.

I was a little sad when I realized that I couldn’t afford any of the cool tours in Iceland, but quickly realized that I could just Google the stops they listed on their websites, rent a car, and go to them by myself since it’s nature, and nature is free! Check out some highlights from my four road trips in Iceland, and if you’d like more information...
Time: Full Day Cost: About $50 in gas Tip: Stop wherever you see people gathering, and watch out for trolls. After downing a few Icelandic brews with a couple friendly, freakishly-attractive Icelandic dudes in Reykjavik, I had the genius idea of asking them where I should go on my last day in Iceland that not many people know about.

South Coast (of Iceland) Best Coast! No but seriously, the South Coast of Iceland is where all of the best waterfalls are, plus Black Sand Beaches! You’ll find the most popular waterfalls; Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss here, as well as Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach! Plus if you’re up for it, you can keep going further to the Southeast coast and see...
