This is the tale of two friends, whose curiosity drove them far from their native lands.
United by an insatiable spirit of discovery, they determined to pursue a different life.
They would set out to explore untold, exotic and sensational faraway lands, beginning their journey in my native Iceland.
Like our great Viking ancestors thousand years before them, the young men first touched down in Reykjavík.
Invigorated by the crisp Nordic air of our capital, they surrendered themselves to the royal blue Icelandic sky.
Inspired to experience every corner of our fantastic island, the explorers would follow the fabled ring road through our notoriously volatile geography.
Their cameras were their spears and the Icelandic winter sun their guide, as they headed past the legendary Golden Circle.
Around every turn of our ever-changing topography, they were rewarded with a new and exhilarating discovery.
The explorers watched in awe as raw elements perpetuated an eternal cycle of destruction and formation.
And with every step, their hunger for exploration grew more ambitious.
Along the way, they encountered descendants of our great Norse settlers, whose exceptionally diverse lives made the friends contemplate the infinite variety of life.
Proud to share their heritage, the Icelandic hosts bestowed upon our two young adventurers their most prized possession.
They shared stories of the generations raised among Iceland's most remarkable sites.
A gift that our two explorers would forever treasure, as they continued their adventure to grasp life's extraordinary story.
