Recapping Iceland & Oktoberfest Adventures π§πΊ
|
Happy Thursday! I'm back from my trip to Iceland and Germany and it was SO MUCH FUN! Two very different places but I love them both. First up was Iceland - the land of fire and ice. Iceland looks amazing in pictures, but they don't do it justice to just how beautiful the country is. Every day had something new, and I'm so glad I did the Ring Road instead of staying near Reykjavik the whole time. If you want to see what I got up to every day, check out all my Iceland YouTube videos. I also have my full Iceland trip review up on my blog. After Iceland, I headed to Munich, Germany, for the famous Oktoberfest. I knew it would be a lot of fun, but I didn't know just how fun. From the liters of beer to singing Sweet Caroline at the top of my lungs with thousands of strangers to the incredible food, it was everything I could've wanted and more. If you are thinking about heading to Oktoberfest, DO IT! I cannot recommend it enough - 2026 is your year! My two videos all about Oktoberfest will be up at at the end of the month right after Iceland. You won't want to miss them, so make sure you subscribe to my channel! I also have the full review for Oktoberfest up on my blog. If you have any questions about Iceland, Oktoberfest, or anything travel, I love to chat!
