? Only when traveling can a person hear his own voice, which will tell you that the world is wider than expected. -Miyazaki Hayao's "Wu Jia Bang"

? What I want to say is: in my world, life without travel can only be called survival.

? With the coming of summer vacation, my dream of traveling around the world began to bloom again. I have driven the east-west line of the United States and the blue coastline of France. I have encountered hurricanes, desert storms and downpours, driven an old French manual car, and driven a brand-new luxury off-road vehicle in the United States. After I traveled to more than 30 countries and accumulated rich self-driving experience, I began to look forward to that mysterious country-Iceland.

? Iceland is a mysterious country, and the midnight sun can travel through outer space in one second. In the world of ice and fire, in the world of mosses, volcanoes, glaciers, waterfalls and canyons, we are driving at the end of the world every day like humans lost in lonely alien planets. The feeling of excitement, joy, loneliness and even fear has never been felt before. Iceland's cool beauty, stunning and suffocating black beaches, roadside boulders that will fall down at any time like flying from outer space, green grasslands, glaciers that have remained unchanged for thousands of years, magnificent golden waterfalls, pink and blue blue blue lagoon hot spring water, and a large number of strange moss landforms that make people numb are amazing and shocking! Walking in such a mysterious country with an active volcano covered with ice sheets, I feel that nature is really wonderful in an instant!

Seriyalan Waterfall is a very popular waterfall on the south bank of Iceland. It is narrow and high, with a drop of 63 meters. The most special thing about Serialand Falls is its secret. There is a path under the waterfall. You can walk behind the waterfall and shoot spectacular scenery from a unique perspective, which is a bit like the feeling of water curtain cave!

"Golden Waterfall" is the most beautiful waterfall in Iceland. Located at125km east of Reykjavik, the waterfall sparkles in the sunset. The name of the famous tourist route "Golden Circle" comes from this waterfall. It, Geyser and National Park, the former site of Congress, are the three most famous scenic spots in the golden circle.

I have seen the Old Faithful Spring and various geothermal and landforms in Yellowstone National Park. It's the same as and different from here. Similarly, it is the cause of crustal movement and change. The difference is that beauty is different and needs to be savored.

? The plan for this trip was originally to drive around Iceland for half a month. Due to visa reasons (Iceland visa must go to Beijing for face-to-face visa, which is time-consuming and laborious and complicated) and my husband's holiday is limited, I finally decided to travel to Iceland, Denmark and Sweden after repeated choices, 1 1 day. The hotel stays in three countries for three days, and the average time is allocated. You can choose to apply for a Swedish visa, and Chengdu can pay it! This will not only solve the visa problem, but also make driving too hard. Iceland is a particularly interesting and mysterious country, and I have always been fascinated by it. In addition, my husband is a fan of Game of Thrones, and Iceland is the shooting place of the play. Especially after the movie "Daydreaming Housewives" was broadcast, how many people yearned for skateboarding on Iceland 1 highway, all because of deep poisoning! Ha ha! In fact, the expressway 1 is very bumpy and skateboarding is very dangerous. Never follow the trend! My daughter likes Icelandic handsome guys, and she is a semi-qualified fan. The whole family hit it off. According to the experience of free travel in the past, we generally choose different modes of travel according to the specific conditions of different countries, and strive to be free, convenient and economical.

The three countries chose Iceland to drive for three days (because there is almost no public transportation in Iceland and the distance between scenic spots is relatively long, it is more convenient to choose self-driving. In addition, the sun hardly sets in summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and you can run on the road at night 10, which is especially suitable for self-driving. In Sweden, public transportation is very developed, and the subway line is just one of the most beautiful and distinctive attractions. The distance between the main scenic spots in the old city is not very far, so I choose subway and walking. By the way, there have been many suggestions for cycling in the old city. I don't recommend this, because the Swedish handsome guy is so tall and feels that his bike is so tall and big, so it is estimated that it is inconvenient to ride. ) Denmark chooses a rickshaw to spend a day in the distant castle and Andersen Museum, take the subway to stroll in the city and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.

Stockholm subway spent 100 RMB to buy a 24-hour pass, and we tossed back and forth for two hours, shooting in various online celebrity positions! Ha ha ha, really passing by. Don't miss it!

The commentator said humorously that the sunken ship in Vasa Shipwreck Museum was exquisite in workmanship and magnificent in momentum, but it was useless to look at it, and it sank on its maiden voyage, which was equivalent to China's face project! Hahaha, it seems that all places with stars are the same!

Fairy tale world-Denmark, what impressed me the most was the simple and atmospheric architecture in Nordic style, and the colors were fascinating. Here, I want to make it clear that many scenic spots in Iceland do not need tickets. This part-time job is very different from some high-priced scenic spots in China. The Danish Sparkling Box Fairy Tale Experience Hall is very interesting. After the tickets go in, dozens of princess clothes, cloaks, mermaid tails and so on can be worn and photographed casually, which can fully meet the princess dream needs of old, middle and beautiful women! Ha ha ha clothes are free! Cool!

Next time I'm going to play for a day, there are beautiful scenery and many interesting sports activities here. Adults and children can find some places to play!

Our hotel in Copenhagen this time is Bella Sky AC Hotel under Marriott Hotel Group, which is very close to the airport and has a direct bus to the hotel, which is very convenient! The whole hotel design is tilted and won the Nordic Design Award! Breakfast is very rich, simple and fashionable. I like it very much!

My daughter is a qualified Lego lover. I saw the Lego she spelled, and I felt incredible. Her works have filled Kaka's corner at home! hahaha

There is no direct flight from Chengdu to Iceland, so we can only transfer from Frankfurt and Beijing. In order to save time, we flew six times and stayed for nine days. The itinerary is: Chengdu-Frankfurt; Frankfurt-Stockholm; Stockholm-Reykjavik; Reykjavik-Copenhagen; Copenhagen-Beijing; Beijing-Chengdu. Don't faint. Ha ha ha ha ha! Actually, it's ok to sit down (I would like to remind you that the seats of flights from European countries to Iceland are limited, so you must book in advance as far as possible. It's best to book your luggage in advance and pay together when you book your ticket. Baggage should be paid separately. It will be much cheaper to buy luggage when booking a plane ticket, but it will be more expensive for the time being. This must be planned in advance, which can save glistening RMB. What needs special explanation here is that you can book air tickets separately, or you can book air tickets between the hotel and Ctrip through websites such as booking.com, Ctrip and Mawei? Compared with hotels, Ctrip is more cost-effective, and because there are too many stopovers and fewer seats on foreign flights, Ctrip booking is easier and cheaper than booking alone. In order to increase freedom, I will arrange the next trip myself!

? Sweden stayed at Courtyard by Courtyard by Marriott King's Island in Stockholm, with a good environment and high cost performance. It is a typical Nordic style, and the sea is just a few steps away.

? It is better to choose a day than to bask in the sun. The second day we went, we happened to meet the World Gay and Lesbian Congress in Europe. They say it's hard to meet once. The handsome guy I met at the airport humorously asked us if we were coming to the conference. hahaha

Gay parades include teachers, police, doctors and consumers. What an eye opener!

On the issue of car rental and insurance, there are two forms of car rental: one is to rent a car directly from foreign car rental websites, and the other is to rent a car from car rental websites. I started renting a car many years ago, and it is convenient to buy a full set of insurance on the car rental platform. Every year, before going abroad to drive by car, I will rent a car, choose a good model in advance and buy insurance. Car rental will also provide free international driver's license translation certification. When you pick up the car, you must remember to bring the translation certification and your original China driver's license. (It should be noted that China has not acceded to the United Nations Convention on Road Traffic at present, so Chinese mainland citizens cannot apply for IDP at present, and must bring the original driver's license to drive normally. It is particularly important to note that the traffic laws and regulations in each country are different, so you must study thoroughly before driving. On this trip to Iceland, I rented a medium-sized SUV from AVIS, which was selected on the car rental website. When picking up the car at the store, the store temporarily provided the Land Rover Range Rover Sport Edition, and the car was in good condition. Before leaving, I bought the super total insurance of the car rental company to make sure that nothing was lost. With regard to foreign self-driving insurance, I suggest that you must buy comprehensive insurance. Once you encounter a traffic accident, it will be very smooth. Once I drove the American highway 1 and stopped at a red light intersection in a small town. A dodge pickup truck driven by a California forest fire rear-ended the car. We immediately called the police to let him take full responsibility, and finally all of them were paid by the other insurance company. There are no obstacles when returning the car. 20 15 I am driving in France. Due to the shortage of vehicles in summer, I only rented an old manual transmission car. When I returned the car, the car rental company found scratches around the car. We recall that it must have been hung in the parking lot when we went to eat. Originally, the car body was covered with old scratches, and we didn't pay attention. It seems that there are dishonest people abroad, because we bought full insurance. The maintenance fee of 65,438+0,400 Euros is only confirmed by the insurance company, so it is very important to emphasize insurance. ) On this trip to Iceland, I bought Super All Risks, and I was very touched when I arrived in Iceland and received the warm reminder of renting a car in advance. I want to say here that the car rental platform is very perfect at present, which not only provides overseas car rental and driver's license translation, but also provides various insurances and where to book tickets. The service is good. Especially for self-driving enthusiasts with poor English, it is very convenient. ) It reminds me that I have already bought Super Total Insurance, so I don't need to buy insurance. If the car rental company sells insurance, I can refuse! But after consideration, I still spent more than 70 dollars to buy an insurance that only Iceland has. It is said that there is sand in Iceland that gets into the car and is scrapped. The maximum compensation can be 90,000 US dollars! Hahaha, I think this kind of luck is estimated to be zero, but I am still afraid of being too lucky. Pay more money to buy peace when going out. Safety is always the most important! Another thing is about driving and picking up cars in Iceland. When I saw the screen, I kept reminding Iceland that it was windy. When I open the door, I must hold it, or I will blow it down. I thought at that time: What kind of wind blows the door of Land Rover Range Rover open? The next day, while driving in Iceland's Golden Circle, I realized how powerful the demon wind was in Iceland. I couldn't drag when I opened the door, and suddenly my arm was Qing Wu, so I couldn't drag, hahaha! Very amazing!

? It is best to rent a car in Iceland with full oil, which is both convenient and most cost-effective. We went to the airport to return the car at four o'clock in the morning, and filled it up in advance the night before, fearing that there would be no penalty for returning the car to the airport fuel tank. As an experienced old driver, you should manually add a little oil when the oil gun jumps when returning the car to the airport for the last time, so that the extra oil can let you return the car or fill up the tank (this is my personal experience as an old driver). The service of Avis car rental company is really good. There is free coffee at the car return office, and a special car will take you to the airport gate after returning the car. Good service!

? Finally, I warmly remind all friends who have the dream of go on road trip in Iceland that you can't have your cake and eat it. If you want to see more beautiful scenery by car, you'd better choose summer with higher safety factor. The locals told us that it is best not to drive easily in winter, the nights are long, the roads are frozen, and the weather in Iceland changes too fast, which is very dangerous! It is said that several compatriots drove in Iceland last winter and never returned to their hometown. It is safer to choose to travel with local tour guides in winter! My ideal plan is to go to Iceland to explore the road by car in summer, and then find a happy winter to enjoy the scenery of the ice lake, which not only satisfies go on road trip's dream, but also satisfies the experience of the ice lake and the Northern Lights in winter. Great! hahaha

? Most self-driving roads in Iceland are set at 90 km/h, and the speed limit in some places is 30/40 km. When driving on mountain roads, in some places, when you are speeding, there will be smiling electronic road signs to tell you the current speed, reminding you to pay attention to safety, which is very humanized. Don't try to drive fast in Iceland. Don't think that you can hardly see the police and monitoring equipment. It is said that the maximum fine for speeding in Iceland can reach about 15000 RMB. According to the information in i query before you leave Iceland, if you exceed the speed limit, you will receive an email from the car rental company three to six months after you leave Iceland. Car rental companies will deduct your expenses with credit cards, and some will even notify the traffic management bureau to deduct points. After I returned the car, my credit card showed that some prepaid rights were unfrozen. I think the unfrozen prepaid right is probably waiting to see if you have a speeding ticket in a few months, so you must abide by the local traffic rules! Looking at the raiders before going out, many people say that the rain in Iceland is coming, and the wind is particularly strong! But we were really lucky, except for the 5-level deviant gale the next day, everything was sunny! It is often when we go to a restaurant for dinner, and the sun shines brightly after dinner. It rained on the way to Blue Lake Hot Springs, and it cleared up immediately when we arrived in blue lagoon. We had a good time all the way. It's really our personality explosion!

? The scenic spots of online celebrities and their photography postures are all necessary knowledge for young people to travel in recent years, hahaha! We went to blue lagoon, Iceland, and booked tickets for blue lagoon and a restaurant one month in advance. As a result, we only booked tickets at 7 pm. I looked at it before I left. It is very convenient to drive directly from the airport to the Blue Lagoon in the morning. After soaking in hot springs, you can also enjoy online celebrity food in Blue Lagoon Restaurant, but it's a bit cheat people and expensive! We picked up the car at the airport, went back to the hotel to check in, and then started walking to Reykjavik Cathedral in Iceland. We timed it, drove to the Blue Lagoon at four o'clock in the afternoon, and had a leisurely online celebrity meal in the restaurant from five to seven o'clock. It's delicious. Although the average per capita is more than 500 yuan, we all think it is genuine, not a lie. It's of good quality and delicious! I took a closer look at the posture of blue lagoon, an online celebrity recommended by netizens, posing in the middle of the lake with a free drink and a unique volcanic mud mask on his face. All kinds of postures are terrible! Husband simply took a gopro and followed it all the way, hahaha! (It is emphasized here that a waterproof bag must be prepared for taking photos with a mobile phone. Shooting is the clearest, too much steam behind will blur. You'd better take Gopro and take sports photos. Well done! )

The black sand beach in Vic, Iceland is also a wedding photography place for online celebrities. The waves on the black sand beach are big and high. Don't get too close. It is said that tourists are swept away every year. Tourists pose on the basalt columns beside the beach, and instantly feel that people are very small between heaven and earth! You can step on a few footprints on the black beach first, and then go to the farthest footprint. The effect can definitely be compared with the online celebrity PK! Ha ha laugh

And sitting on the roof of the car against the magical wind of Iceland, with grassland in front and glaciers next to it. It feels great to go forward!

Almost more than 90% people in Nordic countries can speak English, so as long as they know a little spoken English, it should be ok! There are few language barriers.

Nordic countries have different currencies. Before going abroad, there is no need to exchange local krona at all. You only need to bring an international credit card with visa or master logo. It is very convenient to use! You can swipe your card when you go to the toilet, take a taxi or take the subway in Sweden, which is very convenient and fast.

? During this trip to the three Nordic countries, the food has its own characteristics. The basic principles of eating every time I travel are: first, try to eat all the local specialties; The second is to consume reasonably on the basis of fully enjoying the fun brought by food.

? Icelandic cuisine: Iceland is famous for its high prices. The first meal in Iceland is an economical noodle restaurant-only beef noodles, chicken noodles and vegetable noodles can be selected, and the most pleasant thing is Chili noodles, which are so comfortable to eat! The special dessert of Lava Restaurant in Blue Lake Hot Springs, steak is particularly delicious, and cod rich in more than 60 degrees north latitude is tender and delicious. Hotel breakfast authentic Icelandic yogurt; The delicious Icelandic mutton soup in Wik town, but unfortunately I didn't eat the sheep noodles, hahaha, save some regrets and try it next time I see the northern lights!
