Icelandic village
« on: Fri, 25 April 2014, 17:16:45 »
Does anyone feel like that GH has become some what desolate like that Icelandic village..

I saw an episode on discovery about it,  where people live quite far apart, so only once a year they have a courtship event (a ball, sort-off) at a small tavern in the middle of no-where, and about 40x people about come to meet each other.



Not pointing fingers at who's driving this forum like a ghost-tavern... but I must say its policies are NOT conducive to growth...

If you're into Icelandic villages, I recommend this novel:

I prefer the Icelandic sagas.  Oh they bring joy to my heart.  The blood-feuds, wars, clans, monsters, what is not to love?

What are the roofs (the bit under the grass) made of?

It would have to be something resistant to the dampness inherent in the grass and soil.

It was a great vacation despite the weather and the lack of activities, the nature was just amazing. I would recommend visiting it if you're in to beautiful landscapes and especially waterfalls (they have like a billion of those)... now for some more pictures;

Heh, loving the photos  :D

Switch the default theme to a new, better light theme, and add images to the front page and the place would seem a lot friendlier for newcomers. I've seen a few passionate communities become like little villages, where a handful of people make most of the posts. Still appreciate them for what they are.
