To camp somewhere has been on my summer bucket-list for a long time and I finally did it in the beginning of this month. There is this small farm festival which is not that well known, it's kind of a family meeting where related people gathers to this place and have fun. By the way there was non internet service. But I still took my phone because I wanted to take photos of this beautiful area and show you. You can see them down below. It was my first time in a long time camping outside in a tent aaand it did not went well... I went after the main party to my tent. Went inside all naked, because someone had told me that it's the best thing to do if you want to keep warm in a tent.. Well I wasn't. I hope that no one was playing around with me.. Anyways. I just laid there in the tent and was trying to sleep but I basically couldn't. I was about to freeze to death, it was so cold. But when I looked up I saw plenty dots and long lines connected to them. I was hoping that it would be just some weirdo flies. But no. I was wrong. It was Spiders. My biggest fear. The number one thing that I hate the most. I was trying to stay calm but I freaked out. I ran out of the tent butt naked and ended up sleeping in a car. But I felt much more comfortable there than sleeping in a tent which had full of spiders. Slept in 2 hours and headed back home because of work. I think that I'll never sleep in a tent ever again! But here are some photos from the trip. I hope that you'll have a great weekend with your friends! Cuz I'm about to ;)

I participated in the beginning of August to act for a project with Inspired by Iceland. I'm now on the front cover and have been ever since from September when they published the video. Maybe some of you recognize the a-ö Icelandic song, also known as "the hardest karaoke in the world" that was just released. It was a new thing for me and I really enjoyed doing it. I was supposed to act in a natural hot tub in the Westfjords which is called the "Hellulaug." The first night I stayed at a Hotel in Patreksfjordur. I was really excited but I had do go to sleep early and rest, because we were starting early the next morning. The hotel was nice but I didn't sleep well. Probably because of excitement. I had a good and a nutritious breakfast. When I was done eating, I went to few places before my shoot. I had to wear natural make up, sweater from 66° north and purple bikini's. The shoot took a long time and my feet were starting to hurt because I was always walking over some small rocks, over and over. But we finally did it and here below you can see the video that they put together, just click on the photo above and follow the link. I dare you to "try to sing along"!... I was also in another vid on their page which is of the Westfjords. I really recommend to take a look at their website. It's a great guide for you if you're planning a trip to Iceland and it also has a lot of ideas of places. You could even win a trip to Iceland if you'll take their quiz. If you really want to, then go on now before it ends! This was a big step for me and a new good experience. I know it's not a big part of the music video but it's still something new for me and one of the top highlights this year. I had a great time by doing it, until next time..
