Have you been to Iceland? I just booked tickets to go to Iceland in the spring and so here's a travel guide to help you too. You're not going to Iceland? Well maybe this list will help you decide that you should go.

1. Blue Lagoon


There's a spa here too. You had me at spa. Learn more: http://www.bluelagoon.com/

2. Gullfoss


It's a giant, beautiful waterfall. Check out its website: http://gullfoss.is/

3. Gold Circle


It's a popular tourist route in southern Iceland. It covers about 300 kilometres/190 miles from Reykjavik into southern lands. You'll find all the tourist-y things here.

4. National Museum of Iceland

Located in Reykjavik, you can learn all about this beautiful country you are visting! http://www.thjodminjasafn.is/english

5. Árbæjarsafn

An open air museum, it provides insight to how people have lived in Iceland. Also, no advanced booking needed! http://borgarsogusafn.is/en/arbaer-open-air-museum

6. Perlan

A fine dining restaurant. A restaurant you should 100% eat at. Learn more: http://www.perlan.is/?lang=en

7. Askja

It's a caldera and central volcano in the Dyngjufjöll mountains. You can also catch a tour that goes by this.

8. Súlur

Located in the town-mountain of Akureyri, this is a popular walking and hiking trail that leads to this beautiful mountain.

9. Fríkirkjan í Reykjavík

There's always so much history inside of a church. It's a wonderful way to understand a culture.

10. Jökulsárlón (The Glaciar Lagoon)

This is a large glacial lake near the edge of Vatnajökull National Park. http://icelagoon.is/

So between the mountain hikes, glaciers, waterfalls, and museums, I'm sure there will never be a dull moment.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading
