When asked what comes to mind upon hearing the word Iceland, you’ll probably get “ice” or “snow” for an answer. I was once guilty of that, too, but as I aged, I came to realize that Iceland is nothing but a place for a laid back person like me. After browsing the internet for some pictures, I was left with awe. Iceland is a region that belongs to the Nordic countries in Northern Europe. The infrastructures would make one have a second and more appreciative look, and nature would go one silent, if not overwhelmed, by its sharp contrasts. Far from the notion of any regular person like me who thought that Iceland is only all about snow and cold weather, glaciers and winter and mittens, surprisingly Iceland is a country of active volcanoes and hot springs, too! What could be more thrilling than living in a country surrounded by active volcanoes?! In actuality, some parts of the country had been destroyed by volcanic eruptions and seismic activities. But this fact does not make Iceland any less of a beautiful place to visit. Iceland offers a lot of majestic sceneries not only for those who love nature so much but also to those who seek for an adventure as well. Anytime you'd like to visit Iceland and if you're traveling from the U.S., save on airport parking.

Here are the places that will make you include Iceland on your bucket list:

If you’re planning Christmas at home you likely have a long and healthy “to do” list when it comes to getting your beloved home ready for the big day. You’ll have wrestled with the Christmas tree and decorated it with multicolored baubles. You’ll have decked the halls not only with boughs of holly but with tinsel and LED fairy lights. Christmas cards not only adorn your mantel but every spare inch of shelf space. The fire will be full of logs because nothing says festive like a real log fire, and the door will be bedecked with an inviting and ornate wreath. When all that’s done, your home will be 100% Christmas ready, right?



Well, sorry but… no.

As tempting as it may be to focus solely on the festive accouterments of the season, to do so is to overlook an unpleasant but pertinent fact… Your home may well ruin your Christmas! If you don’t guard against these common seasonal household mishaps today, your home could compromise your Christmas day in ways that no amount of glitter and tinsel can compensate for…

So you’ve got your festive outfit set and the fancy gift wrapped for your “monito” or “monita”. All that’s left undone is a party season-perfect hairstyle. 

The fresh out of the shower look can be seductive yet temporary. Blame it to a tropical climate, it can spoil your appearance, besides making you feel sweaty and stale. The heat and humidity brought about by extreme weather condition, likewise, dries out the locks easily and make it more fragile.
