About Us

Hello and welcome!  Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you take the time to cruise through the hundreds of photos archived on the main page, and get a glimpse of Iceland, through my eyes. 


I was raised in the California Bay Area in an Icelandic household and returned to our beautiful island twelve years ago, giving me what I think is a repatriate's unique view of their Old Country. I have been maintaining Iceland Eyes for the past seven years, with the help and support of many followers, friends and of course my family. With tens of thousands of visitors each month, lots of online international press, a published book of photos and so much international encouragement, I've seen my little hobby grow into something so much more.  

Once again, many thanks for your visit and please enjoy!
