Dreaming Iceland

 

I love this island lost in the far north of the northern hemisphere. It's always been my dream to go there. Years ago I was planning the honeymoon in Iceland, I was torn between the Norwegian fjords and Iceland. In the end we have not yet married, and now I see a little’ difficult with the baby and Great Danes. But continues to remain a dream of mine and I'm sure in the future I can see it.

Iceland, literally “the land of the ice”, i geysers, puffins and green cliffs and waterfalls, houses burrowed beneath the moss down into the ground.

The Icelandic then, as language is the Germanic language most conservative and still retains the characteristics of the ancient Norse, hypothetically language common to all of Scandinavia, Germany, then included the Anglo Saxons in very ancient times, even before the Vikings, from which then developed all the Germanic languages ​​differentiating between them.

Beliefs Icelandic

According to a recent survey from the University of Reykjavik, 80% of the population does not hesitate to believe in the existence of spirits that lurk in the human way and one of the last census says that in Iceland there is an elf each 500 people, so much so that you do here, elves and gnomes live in houses built just for them. Many Icelanders are asking the question if the elves exist seriously or not, for many it is a natural feeling their existence, need no visual evidence. The statistics clearly show that the majority of the population believes in elves ,generally described as creatures of the human protecting their habitats in the rock, or otherwise are not willing to deny their existence. Icelandic singer Bjork, argues that the producers of the record companies, when looking for new faces, preferenziano artists who believe in the invisible and often only those scritturano. She argues that nature is stronger than man and is strongly convinced that there is a relationship between man and certain spirits. An Irish, if he had a rock in the garden and was the home of an elf, not would remove the, not so much because he thinks there are the little men who live in it, and that sometimes come out and dance in her garden, but because it is a natural feeling that there are other powers, other forces around us, because they believe that it is not necessary to see things in which you believe, and that many of our most important experiences happen with closed eyes.
