Destination | Made in Iceland

TEXT by Celine MacKay | PHOTOGRAPHS by You know when there are times in your life when nearly everywhere you look there is something that inspires you? Makes you want to be and do better? This video made me feel that way... it makes you realize that you MUST make time for self-exploration. To disconnect. Get back to being you... just you. To travel more! Travelling is on my top 10 list of most important things to me, it provides such clarity, perspective, awe and for me, gratitude, yet I don't do it. Yes, the responsibilities of everyday life, of bills, of running your business have a nasty habit of taking over and the funds aren't always there. But I could start a collection jar! Or I could take advantage of the amazing things that are right in my backyard.

To Travel Aone - an Experience Unlike Any Other

You know when there are times in your life when nearly everywhere you look there is something that inspires you? Makes you want to be and do better? This video made me feel that way... it makes you realize that you MUST make time for self-exploration. To disconnect. Get back to being you... just you. To travel more! Travelling is on my top 10 list of most important things to me, it provides such clarity, perspective, awe and for me, gratitude, yet I don't do it. Yes, the responsibilities of everyday life, of bills, of running your business have a nasty habit of taking over and the funds aren't always there. But I could start a collection jar! Or I could take advantage of the amazing things that are right in my backyard.

This was filmed by Klara Harden and is made up of her experiences hiking through Iceland alone. Keep that thought in the front of your mind as you watch it - it makes it that much more incredible.  Click here to find out how you can support Klara, see what else she might be up to and a playlist to the lovely music in the video. AND, please don't let the fact that this film is 15 minutes long stop you from watching it, no matter how busy/overwhelmed you are. Watch it over your break or lunch or come back over the weekend - it's so worth it. It's beautiful and brave.

And I'm so going to Iceland.
