Even More Things I'm finding out about Iceland
3 years ago
1) They LOVE scooters here. Holy shit, do they get their scooter groove on. I see un-manned scooters here and there all over the street, even in towns that aren't Reykjavik. If ya wanna hop on one, just lay your phone with the app down on it, it'll charge to your account, and off ya go.
2) The speed limit is not the foreboding rule I was told it was. "YOU MUST GO THE SPEED LIMIT LEST YOU GET A TICKET THAT WILL COST YOU YOUR FIRST BORN CHILD!"
No, no it won't. I mean, it might, but I can't even tell y'all how many times I was passed by other cars (tailgating me, no less), then passed me zooming way ahead of me by going 15- 20 kilometers faster. (Dammit, I wanna say 'miles' so badly.)
3) Seagulls here sound like someone yelling/crying/moaning loudly, and it freaks me out.
4) They don't sell Icelandic flags here made in Iceland. (Do I really have to buy a flag made in China?)
5) There are no Icelanders working in the hotels and hospitality business. Everyone behind the desk is from elsewhere. Mostly Polish and Czech Republic I find.
WHAT. THE. FUCK?
