Key to Surviving Icelandic (err. North Dakota) Winter? Do Shit

Winter is here, and if you find yourself in Iceland (or North Dakota), it’s not just a season; it’s an endurance test. The mercury’s plummeted, turning Reykjavik (Minot) streets into a world-class ice rink. Navigating the icy terrain calls for channeling your inner penguin. Steady yourself, shift your stride, and maybe even break out the mannbroddar (street cleats). Layer up with the right gear because wind and wet don’t do the cold justice. Sunlight’s a rare treat, so soak it up and supplement your vitamin D. Remember, this too shall pass, and soon summer gripes will take over.

If you’re new to North Dakota, maybe look further north when it comes to coping with you’re new environment. In Iceland, they’ve been doing winter for a 1,000 years. That amount of time teaches you a thing or two even if you carry a streak of Scandinavian stubborn.
