Iceland’s Sky Lagoon was everything I needed after weeks of non-stop travel… and the drive from Reykjavík to the remote town of Vík completely changed the way I saw this country.

In this episode, I slow things down. No sightseeing, no rushing — just a deep, personal experience of Iceland's famous geothermal spa culture, followed by one of the most scenic drives of my trip.

???? Featured: Sky Lagoon Iceland
Nestled on the edge of Reykjavík, Sky Lagoon isn’t just a tourist hotspot — it’s a true piece of Icelandic culture. I experienced the 7-step Icelandic bathing ritual, including hot soak, cold plunge, sauna, and steam — all while facing the Atlantic Ocean. One of the most peaceful moments of my journey.

????️ Next Stop: Vík — Iceland’s Scenic South
After 4 days in Reykjavík, I moved base to a quiet cottage near Vík — Iceland’s southern gem. From snowy lava fields to wide open landscapes, this region gives you the real Iceland. Vík is the perfect base for exploring Skógafoss, Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, Seljalandsfoss, and more — all without long daily drives.
