Message from Nicole Zohdi

Akureyri, a town in northern Iceland, is known as the "Capital of North Iceland." It's got a cool history dating back to the 9th century when Viking settlers first arrived. With its mild climate, ice-free harbor, and surrounded by mountains, Akureyri has grown into a bustling port and fishing center. Plus, it's home to the University of Akureyri and some awesome views of Eyjafjörður fjord. Overall, it's a pretty rad place to visit in Iceland!
