in Iceland

Katrin is half Guyanese and half Icelandic, but spent more than half her life in Canada. She lives occasionally in Iceland, since that’s where she works to afford all her international gallivanting, but she doesn’t really like cold places so she prefers to wander in search of sun and warmth. But she does love penguins and Icelandic ponies, err, horses, so she likes to travel in cold places too.

Katrin likes to travel, and then she likes to write about it, so she’s kind of a self-proclaimed travel writer. UC Berkeley actually granted her a Masters in Tourism, so that has to make her somewhat qualified to talk about travel. It doesn’t work anymore to just be ‘funemployed,’ and since her last student expired in 2013, noone believes she´s a student anymore… but definitely still learning, as long as I keep traveling.

Katrin doesn’t usually talk about herself in the third person, but obviously you know its me 😛 If you do want to hear third-party stories about Katrin, here is a list of interviews and articles about Katrin, many of which happen to be in German (I don’t German so google translate is your friend). If you don’t like reading so much, since we all know people only look at blogs for the pretty pictures, then you can follow Katrin on Instagram to filter out the blah-blah. If you want to connect with Katrin, she’s an avid couchsurfer, and sometimes couch-hoster, so take a look at her Couchsurfing profile. Read more about Katrin here, and check out her other blog on Guide to Iceland, focusing on Icelandic stories and tales.

If you´d like to travel with Katrin in Iceland, she has her own trip curating company Me Time Iceland. She is available for hire as a private guide, and is also a free-lance yoga teacher and tour guide with Sleipnir Tours up on Langjökull glacier!
