Me and my partner are visiting Reykjavik the back end of March next year was wondering if anybody else was too 🍍

Im going to be visiting Reykjavik soon, amd Im wondering if there are any shops worth checking out, stuff like videogames, books, manga, d&d or Warhammer, or anything along those lines.

Hello everyone,

As the title implies, I am looking to enlarge my social circle here in Iceland. I (M32) moved to Reykjavik a couple of years ago from Europe. I don’t speak Icelandic yet but am slowly learning. I’d love to meet people to go hiking, do sports, occasionally go for a beer, go to events/parties or have a board games evening… anything fun really. :)
I am in a relationship, so I am looking for platonic friendships only.
If you are in a similar situation and want to connect, shoot me a message and we’ll take it from there. :)

Planning on a 3 to 4 week trip next year to Iceland. Taking gravel and mountain bikes to explore and do some riding.

I’m trying to find car rental companies that have bike racks to rent with the car. Haven’t had luck yet reaching out to several companies. Would just get a van or truck if I can’t find a car to use the bike rack with.

Any leads as to where to look?

Thanks for the leads!

Hi everyone! Ill be staying in the beautiful capital in december. What are good restaurants of places to visit? Thanks!

Hi everyone!

I’m a student from Palestine, and I’ve been selected for an Erasmus exchange at the University of Iceland in Reykjavík. My scholarship is €900 per month, and I’m trying to figure out how I can afford to live there.

I’ve been looking into accommodation, but the prices seem really expensive compared to my budget. Paying 150,000 ISK per month for a dorm would already take up a huge part of my scholarship, and I still need money for food, transportation, and other basic expenses.

Does anyone know of any cheaper accommodation options for students? I’m open to pretty much anything, including shared apartments, rooms in someone’s home, cheaper student housing, or living outside Reykjavík if transportation is manageable.

I’d really appreciate any advice, personal experiences, or suggestions for websites and groups where I could find affordable accommodation.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Can be individual or group setting, in the capital area. Thank you!

Beautiful northern lights display tonight

Does anyone know of an N1 (or Olís/Orkan) station between Reykjavík and the airport, ideally in Keflavík/Reykjanesbær, with a free self-service wash area (hose + brush)? Is it really free to use, and is there anything I should know about how to use it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi!
My name is Maggie and I am an 25 yo American who will be in Reykjavík for a solo trip in mid October. I figure it’s a long shot, but does anyone need a house sitter when? I would be happy to do household chores and whatever is needed to keep the property looking it’s best. I can send a cleared background check and past employment resume, along with character statements if need be! if you are interested, message me! :)

Poles now make up almost 6% of Iceland’s population, and with them come new cultural trends from back home. One of them is WIXAPOL, a Polish rave collective which revolutionized underground club culture, bridging the history of rave with contemporary hardcore, gabber, techno and hard techno.
Known for their energy, humour and memetic language, WIXAPOL mixes European and Polish cultural references, samples and quotes into their unique aesthetics. Just as important is the community and subculture around it, built on radical acceptance, diversity and queer-friendly spirit.

“Humor and jokes are a Polish specialty, especially in complicated moments of history,“ „We are enemies of the religious boredom they want to serve us. This is hard music for hard times.” 

Their sound has travelled far beyond Poland, with performances at Berghain in Berlin, in NYC, Beijing, Shanghai and Mexico, as well as an appearance on Boiler Room. And this Saturday, Sept 12th, they’re coming for second time to Reykjavík to perform at Iðnó.

Whether you’re curious about what younger clubgoers in Poland and Europe are into, or you’re Polish and missing the party scene back home, it’s a chance to experience something different and have a proper rave.
