This is Sally writing because Alex is away at Reykir and I thought people might be interested in the answers Alex wrote to the questions from her classmates in Gunnison. Alex's answers are in blue.
Are you picking up the language quickly?
The language is very tricky, but I could tell someone various hellos and good-bye and ask if they spoke English.
Is it super cold there?
It's not particularly cold, but we do have a lot of snow.
What's up with the trolls, are they everywhere?
I haven't seen as many trolls as I was expecting to because 1/3 of their population really believes in trolls.
We all want the stuffed Puffin too, how much is it?I don't know how much the stuffed puffin was because it was about 7:00 in the morning and the store wasn't open yet. Although, if I did buy it, it might not even fit in our Toyota Corolla.
What is the conversion of a US dollar there?
A U.S. dollar is worth about 120 krónur.
What does the money look like?
Their coins have very pretty pictures on them, and the paper money is very colorful.
What has been your favorite experience?
I don't think I could say which experience was my favorite because I love everything about discovering Iceland. Going to school was very exciting and listening to Icelandic is also very entertaining.
What is the most common sport played there?
Handball is a very popular sport here. Everybody likes to watch the games in which Iceland plays.
Is the food different from ours and is it as good?
Surprisingly, Iceland has a lot of very American things, but of the Icelandic food I've had, it is very good.
