Sex and Nudity

I have noticed that perceptions of sex and nudity in Iceland are a bit odd to some people.  So I went out last night with a group of friends and was talking to an English friend of mine that suggested I should write a blog about how open Icelandic people are about sex. (Which is obviously a great idea because everyone is going to want to read about that – and I have so much to say on the topic!) ;)  This said friend has been to Iceland a couple of times (as well as pretty much everywhere else in the world) and he was amused when he was there with myself and my Icelandic female friend and

My Sociable Problem...

My Sociable Problem...

OK, I have a bit of a sociable problem. The thing is, I like to make friends with everyone. I have been told off by some friends of mine in the past for throwing parties where there are never the same people and always a bunch of tourists I’ve made friends with on the street 5 minutes prior to throwing the party. This is not good when you live in London. It’s just not such a good idea to invite people to your house after only knowing them for a few minutes. People think that you’re weird. To say the least. Social contact alarms go off when people establish contact with each other on the Lon

Dance in Reykjavík

What's the dance scene in Iceland like? Where are dance classes held? Which dance type is common in Iceland? Where can you watch dance performances? Are there any famous Icelandic dancers?  My Dance Background  In no way am I an expert, but I myself dance Argentinian tango, which I mainly learned in Buenos Aires, and I have dabbled with various other forms of dance, in both Iceland and London. The styles I've had a go at include belly dancing, hip hop, African dance, zumba, ballroom, salsa, samba, contemporary, and most recently, pole dancing and Beyoncé style. When I just started dating

The music scene in Reykjavík

Often when I talk to foreigners they ask me how big Iceland is and what the population is. In fact, the country is not so small in landmass - not so much smaller then England, bigger than Ireland, Scotland, Portugal and about twice and a half the size of Denmark. It's the population that's small, roughly 320 000, whereof two thirds live in the greater Reykjavík area (but only 120 000 in Reykjavík itself). This often leads to people comparing Reykjavík in size with some town they are familiar with, or saying something along the lines of "the town I live in has a bigger population than your wh

p.s. on What Not To Say: Ice vs Fin

Another annoying thing to say to an Icelander that my sister so politely reminded me of: You tell someone you're from Iceland. They say fine, OK, whatever - conversation resumes. Some time later they ask you "So, what's Finland like?" This happens ALL THE TIME! I don't know why... Ice and Fin doesn't sound that similar, does it?  I'm unable to count the times someone has mistaken me for a Finn.. and I just want to point out that I've got nothing against Finns. I quite like their suicidal behaviour.  So the reason people normally give when confusing Iceland with Finland is that Iceland

What not to say to Icelanders

OK, so after my last blog a friend agreed that she constantly gets the same reply as me, when she says she's from Iceland. And another (foreign) friend asked me to write key phrases. Which gave me the idea to list the top 5 things you shouldn't say to an Icelander the first time you meet them (or at least not me). Now, the reason why, is because these are the ONLY responses I ever get when I state my nationality and quite frankly I'm just bored of having the exact same conversation again and again and again and....   So, the most (un)popular sentences to say to an Icelander in the reply t

Hot Iceland

    I live in London. Pretty much every time I tell people I'm from Iceland people answer by saying "Brrrrr, well you must be used to the cold then!" (FYI, one of the most irritating reply imaginable.. probably similar to people replying to Brits when they say they're from the UK: "oh, have you had tea with the queen then?" - said with a horribly exaggerated fake British accent)...   But the thing is, Iceland isn't that cold. Yes, there are glaciers. Yes, there is snow in the wintertime. (And sometimes summertime). Yes, the windchill factor is enormous. Yes, there's barely any sunli
