6-Day East Iceland Solo Female Road trip in a Camper Van - Vlog
So many amazing sites and attractions to see n my 6 day solo camper van adventure traveling around East Iceland. I also share how much I paid for fuel at the end of the video.
I highly recommend renting a camper van with Go Campers. Use my code iceland7 to save 7% and get two free duvets when you book with them. www.gocampers.is/
I was using the Go Big Automatic Camper for this trip, which is great for four adults. I often us the Go Lite Automatic camper but the larger one was available at the time.

    My life has brought me from Southern California to the Bay Area to New York City to Colorado and now back to Southern California. I've been through two divorces and more 'experience' than I ever thought would happen. Each time things change traumatically devastates in a way. But also reminds us of the power and hope in our shared humanity. Your positive attitude is what I love best about people. I've lived in many places in the USA, but my salvation has been Jamaica and Africa. Though relationships are always journeys, I now have the deepest love for and connection with Jamaica and through Jamaica, Africa - specifically East Africa. My connection with Uganda, Kenya and South Sudan is deeper than I ever could have imagined. I'm glad to be alive, happy, loved, and able to love. Jewells, I love your Icelandic horse video, and love this video too. I love Brooklyn and Iceland (from afar - I have a Saga book waiting for me 🙂). Thanks to people like you, life is so rich and full of love. Take care, and always stay you💞💞💞

    Thank you, Jewells for everything. You are truly an inspiration. I probably would have been going off, crying, laughing and cussing. I truly believe things happen for a reason and it's how we react to those things determine whether you grow or go through it again. People come into your life for either a season or to stay forever but the main thing is to learn from it all. So, keep smiling and doing what you do. Listening to you made we want to come to Iceland. I will be there in August. It would be nice to run into you there. I have always visited tropical places for vacation and this will be the first time I go to a cold place. I just hope it's not too cold and I'm miserable. lol!!! It will definitely be a story to tell. Wish you the absolute best!!!
