Iceland, how many languages do you speak?

Today we visit Reykjavik, Iceland and ask strangers how many languages they speak. Iceland is one of world's isolated countries, which makes it a fascinating place to explore. I hope you enjoy today's video in Reykjavik as much as I enjoyed making it!

The cat walking towards you was mesmerizing.

This place gives me peace. The language is so beautiful, weather, architecture, people...I suffer with anxiety and despite of not being a cold lover, this cloudy/gloomy weather makes my thoughts rest.🕊️🙏

2:38 I love that lovely cat 🐈❤😍 and I think it feels lonely in a very isolated country like Iceland.

I spent a mere six days in Iceland back in October and it was easily one of the best weeks of my life. Nothing extraordinary or outrageous happened per se, but the atmosphere of the country was everything I had dreamed of since I was in high school. It's hard to believe you're on the same planet when you're there, sometimes. Icelanders are relatively laid back, and when I spoke to them in my poor Icelandic they were so often very receptive and friendly and even encouraging. The grammar is difficult, it's true, but once you start having basic conversations it really inspires you to persevere.

That Italian guy at 7:30 has by far the best English I’ve ever heard from an Italian 😅

Wow, I'm so glad you came across Greek speakers! Opa!!! 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Two things: It's nice to see the person behind the videos, and the sponsorship is absolutely fitting, and sounds like a great resource. Given my family is moving to France later this year, the timing is apt. Thanks! Oh and an odd anecdote from my visit to Iceland when I was a child: I was walking to a video game in the hotel we were at with a coin in hand, and I generated enough of a charge that when I went to put the coin in, it jumpstarted the game! Alas, the trick was not to be repeated...

8:19 she said Björg but the subtitles said Björk it's similar but they are different names

[MelinParis]

Ah I love your humor (accent) and I love these series so much! Pleae keep doing these interviews! Thank you!

[huldaever]

You can tell how good the people are with the cat being so friendly, it's never had trauma due to humans 😍

[RobertBenedikts]

I love this.

Greetings to all from Iceland 🇮🇸 😊

From a fellow Canadian: Try the Icelandic hotdogs. They are fabulous. I've been to Iceland three times, and I want to go back again! Did you know that there is a special connection between Canada and Iceland? New Iceland was a 19th century Icelandic settlement in Manitoba, focusing on the town of Gimli --- and that town has produced a significant amount of literature. And a major Icelandic poet spent most of his life in Canada. Icelanders have long been the most literate people on Earth. So many excellent Icelandic writers. They also produce films and television series of very high quality, and the music scene is fantastic. So much culture in a place with fewer people than London, Ontario or Laval, Quebec.

For fun should visit the Icelandic festival (Islendingadagurinn) in Gimli, Manitoba.

I have never and ever met an Icelandic person in my life. Iceland is 冰島 in Kanji. I think it's a fabulous country.

I lived downtown there for just a year. Man the places you went made me nostalgiac

[alexbraz]

Despite the cold weather I really think this is a great country to live.

9:11 The fact that in the beginning I didn't understand that those guys were from my native country and then they said that they spoke Greek was just great! 😅 And yes, Greece IS a very stressful country! 😢Iceland seems such a beautiful country and as everyone said, their nature is just remarkable! I really want to go there someday in the future, the Icelandic language also sounds very beautiful and ''icy''!

I had to turn captions on to read what languages some of your guests said -even though the captions are in French it gave me the clues hear to what they said!

[Pokeonrocks]

The cat's tail going straight up to show friendship when you spoke to him 😭

Really enjoy these videos. Always surprised by the places you go.
