We are inspired by Iceland! It is an incredible country, not far away and easy to explore on your own. Today only a small area around Ejyafjallajokull icecap is out of bounds for obvious reasons but Iceland has launched a campaign “Inspired by Iceland”. If you want to be inspired by Iceland and discover some of its amazing nature, adventures and geology in summer or winter then contact us as we’d love to tell you about it!

Obviously with much disruption to travel across Europe Iceland’s Eyjafjallajokull volcano is in the spotlight. Just what a bright spotlight it is can be seen in this infra-red image taken overhead by the Earth Observing-1 spacecraft on Saturday 17 April. Ironically the plume has not affected Iceland too much and most internal flights continue undisrupted. Photo couresy of NASA and further images available here .
