In July. At midnight in the north of Iceland. We sat down on our little walk and recorded this little video of an Icelandic summer symphony. We hope you find it relaxing and that it inspires you to visit the Diamond Circle in the north of Iceland.

We recorded this video while staying at the farm of Midhvammur. The farm is on the Diamond Circle route. This farm has it all, great locally grown food and great people. We went out for a walk, and just a few minutes from the farm, we discovered this wonderful little lake.
