Hello World! My name is Katrín and I am half Icelandic, half Guyanese, Canadian raised, with a masters degree in Ecotourism and Icelandic history. I'm a professional world traveler and writer in my free time, but when I'm in Iceland working I guide hiking trips, teach yoga and organize mindfulness retreats from October to March called Me Time Iceland @metimeiceland. I can be your personalized guide for a range of hiking trails in and around Reykjavik, and teach yoga in my home studio or in the comforts of your own hotel/guest house. I'm super networked in the restaurant industry if you want wining and dining tips, and have led a few ridiculously fun bachelor(ette) parties in Reykjavik! Holla if I can help you with any of the above :)

When I was a child growing up in Iceland, I spoke Icelandic, perfectly and fluently. Then at age 8, after moving to Canada, I almost failed grade 2 because I couldn’t understand why no one would respond to my Icelandic. I eventually spoke English well enough to be comfortable speaking only English, but then forgot all my Icelandic. Then I learned French, a lot of French – one of the perks of emigrating to a bilingual country. I studied abroad, in France and Australia, majored in English, and came out a pretty good bilingual Canadian. My first, biggest, (quasi) solo travel experience was pa
I dislike the question “What do you do?” very much since I don’t really have an answer. Well, I have the long-winded response, since I like to do a lot and only for short periods of time. But I don’t really do any one thing, in the way people expect you to answer with a professional title or a job description. I get slightly hung up on customs forms every time I have to fill one out when entering a country, since the question “Occupation:” only has one line for you to answer. I kept writing “student” many months after I graduated, but realized I had to stop doing that now that I have no uni
How small is Reykjavik? Well, with only 120,000 people, its small enough to accidently run into Bjork in the public swimming pool, party with Sigur Ros at Kaffibarinn, hike with the president or see the comedian turned mayor Jón Gnarr buying his coffee every morning at Ráðhús (City Hall). Only in Iceland can you see important politicians and celebrities leading regular, day to day lives. Noone bothers them or be follows them in a press frenzy, and its possible (likely, even) to run into the president twice in one week. The first time I saw him, he was attending the 85th birthday of my for
