My grandma, Eymundin Eymmundson was an incredible women. Full of life and happiness. She lived for her family and taught me many lessons in the time I knew her. It became a lifelong dream of mine to go see where Umma, as we called her, came from. So without any contacts except for a name, I rustled up my parents, husband and one year old and planned a month long pilgrimage to the homeland….Iceland. With absolutely no idea what we were in store for I made contact with one of our cousins. A beautiful soul named Vala. She instantly connected us to family around the whole island. It was incredible. The generosity of these people was unbelievable. Vala helped organize visits and parties all along the way. It was a life changing experience for all of us I think. To experience such a magical place and culture and sense of true family togetherness fulfilled every hope and dream I had growing up wondering about this amazing place. These are a few shots from our adventure to Iceland...
