Thinking of moving to Iceland?
Find your way to Iceland
Iceland is perched close to the Arctic Circle mid-way between Europe and North America. Iceland has gained notoriety for its airline stopping volcanos, stunning scenery, and northern lights. Now a popular stopover destination for people traveling between Europe and North America, several airlines fly to Keflavik International Airport (KEF).
