FACES Magazine November-December 2024. It’s an eco-friendly nation of few trees, many volcanoes, changeable weather, and cuisine that relies on the sea. Learn all about Iceland in this issue of FACES!
There’s no better time than winter to celebrate a country named after ice? But despite its gorgeous glaciers, there’s a lot more to Iceland than ice. Explore a few of the country’s 125 volcanoes, meet the small but mighty Icelandic horses, and take a dip in a beautiful blue geothermal pool. While the winter nights may be long, summer days in Iceland are, too! Learn what it’s like to live in the land of midnight sun! Then, check out some authentic Icelandic cuisine. Would you dare sample a bite of traditional fermented shark? Ring in the winter season with delicious holiday spesiur cookies that you can make at home!
