I’m pleased to announce that, working with Books On The Underground, Iceland, Defrosted has been released on to the London Underground system. This is a wonderful scheme, and the brainchild of Holly, who leaves books on tube trains for people to take, read, enjoy and then return for someone else to enjoy. You can find […]
Last night was the third launch of Iceland, Defrosted, following launches in London (where I underestimated the number of attendees) and in Reykjavík (not so much). I had always wanted to do something in the area where I had grown up, so that I could show some gratitude to my friends, family and colleagues who […]
I was talking to an Icelander, when I first thought that something was wrong. I couldn’t figure it out at first, it was so unusual. I am taller than most people, so it came as a surprise that the Icelander I was talking to towered over me. I’m not used to looking up to people […]
Icelanders love a drink, and yet Iceland has had a chequered past with alcohol. Things are changing though, and a brave group of Icelanders are about to brave their way into the world of whisky.

Twosomeness was one of my top albums from 2012, and is still getting some plays on the old stereo these days. They were even kind enough to let me use their music for my Kickstarter […]
Don’t get me wrong, the London launch of Iceland, Defrosted at the Embassy of Iceland may have appeared smooth and slick on the surface, but underneath there was a catalogue of nerves and mishaps just waiting to throw the whole thing off the rails. Take for example, that the Embassy staff had to purchase whole […]

He has a successful career as a freelancer and is regularly hired by a range of individuals and organisations for his creative approach to photography.

I admit it; most of my travels around Iceland haven’t been that strenuous. I’ve seen quite a bit of the country, but quite a bit of that was through the bottom of a bottle or with a knife and fork in hand. I’m not ashamed of it, but I was intrigued to hear about Geoff […]
