Iceland is one of the coolest places I've visited.
Reykjavik is nice, but it's small and can be done in 2 days - the real magic of the place lies outside the city. The landscape is so incredibly diverse, it's like visiting different worlds every few dozen kilometers - Mars-like barren wastelands, lush green fields, cliffs plunging into the ocean, glaciers floating to the sea, all right off the highway.
I'd love to go back and spend a week with good hiking gear, rent a 4x4 and walk a glacier and volcano.
This place should really be on everyone's bucketlist for places to see.
