Swimming
The most local thing you can do while in Iceland. Just a min walk from the house. Here locals meet everyday in the geothermal pools and hot tubes and discuss the news of the day. Start you're day with a morning swim and relaxation in the hot tubes or for the best nights sleep to end you're day in the pool and soak in the warm water

Parks and Nature
Öskjuhlíð is a beautiful woodland area surrounding Perlan—one of Reykjavík's stunning landmark buildings.
Conveniently located right in the heart of the city, this gorgeous place makes for a popular quick getaway from city life, where visitors can cycle or walk along the various paths, that weave through a dense forest of pines and birch trees.
Only a 10 min drive away.

Helgafell, or “Holy Mountain,” is a mountain just outside the town of Hafnarfjörður, a 20 min drive from the house. It’s a climb that doesn’t take long to hike, yet the view from the top is spectacular. If i'm longing for a light walk and fresh mountain air then I will go the Helgafell with my dogs. Some locals even go mountain running, an exercise which is growing in popularity in Iceland. This makes a hike up Helgafell the perfect trip if you don’t want to spend an entire day hiking, or just take a break from the city for a few hours.

Beautiful islands in the south of Iceland. Gorgeous landscape with a lot of bird and sea life all around. Puffins, whales, seals, magnetic lava cliffs and fields. If you go there I recommend Slippurinn for dinner (Amazing dining experience), GOTT (tasty lunch) and also Eldheimar (Museum of the eruption that happened on the island 1973).
