You know, one thing about Iceland that really threw me off was the language. Icelandic is like the encrypted version of Old Norse. I tried to speak the language, but it felt like I was casting a spell or something. I went to a restaurant, and the menu was a linguistic rollercoaster. I couldn't pronounce anything. The waiter would say something, and I'd just nod and hope for the best. I ordered what I thought was lamb, but it turned out to be fermented shark. Yeah, it's a delicacy there. More like a delicacy for the taste buds of a Viking zombie.
I asked the waiter, "What's in this?" And he said, "Shark, fermented for months." I was like, "Oh, so it's like the cheese of the sea." Never thought I'd say this, but I miss the simplicity of pointing at pictures on a menu.

Let's talk about the weather in Iceland. It's like Mother Nature got bored and decided to play a prank on everyone. I packed for all seasons, and guess what? I experienced all seasons in one day. I'd wake up, and it's sunny, birds chirping, perfect. By lunchtime, it's raining sideways. I'm not even sure how that's possible. And then in the evening, it's snowing. I felt like I was in a nature-themed episode of a reality show – "Survivor: Iceland Edition."
The locals just go about their day like it's completely normal. I saw a guy in shorts and a winter jacket. I was bundled up like I was about to climb Everest, and he's strolling by like, "What's up, tourist? Enjoying the weather?" No, sir, I am not enjoying the weather. I'm just trying to survive it.

Icelandic wildlife is a whole different ball game. I was excited to see puffins, you know, those adorable birds. But I soon realized they are basically the seagulls of Iceland – everywhere and not as cute when they steal your food. I tried to take a selfie with a puffin, thinking it would be this magical moment. Instead, it attacked me. I didn't know puffins could be so aggressive. I felt like I was in an Alfred Hitchcock movie, but instead of "The Birds," it was "The Puffins," coming for my sanity.
And don't even get me started on the Icelandic horses. They look at you with this judgmental expression, like they know you're not from around there. I tried to make friends with one, and it just turned its majestic Icelandic mane and walked away. I was like, "Fine, be that way. I didn't want your approval anyway, Mr. Ed's distant cousin.

Hey, everybody! So, I recently went to Iceland. Yeah, I thought it was going to be this exotic adventure, you know, the land of fire and ice. But turns out, it's also the land of getting lost. I mean, seriously, the place is so beautiful and otherworldly that even Google Maps is like, "I got nothing, man." I was driving around, and every time I asked for directions, Siri just said, "Good luck, buddy."
I swear, Iceland is the only country where you can have a heated argument with your GPS, and the GPS wins. It's like, "You missed the turn." And I'm like, "No, I didn't!" And the GPS is like, "I've rerouted. You missed the turn."
I spent more time trying to figure out where I was than actually enjoying the scenery. At some point, I thought I discovered a secret hot spring, but it turns out it was just somebody's backyard. They were not happy to see me in my swim trunks.
