I had the pleasure of chatting with Eunsan Huh, the awesome creator of the popular Instagram account, @EverySingleWordinIcelandic. On her account, you will find Icelandic words that she has illustrated as icons, which is helping her and others to learn the language.

She has also created a book called "Iceland in Icons: a Pictographic Travel Guide", which I will have a link to in the show notes of this episode.  It was so much fun to chat with her about how she fell in love with Iceland, why she started to learn the language and some of the adventures she has been on around the country.

The Questions I Asked Eunsan During the Interview

* You have a very interesting background. You were born in Korea, raised in Australia and Canada and now you have been living in NYC for more than a decade. After being exposed to so many different cultures, what made you gravitate toward Iceland?* When did you decide to start learning Icelandic? * What resources are you using to learn Icelandic and what has your experience been like?* What inspired you to start creating icons for Icelandic words?* You have a book called “Iceland in Icons: A Pictographic Travel Guide”. Obviously, the use of icons to represent places and words in Icelandic make it unique, but what else makes your book different than other travel guides?  * How many times have you visited Iceland? * Do you see yourself living here?* I saw on your Instagram that you have stayed and worked on a farm while in Iceland. What was that experience like? Do you recommend that to others?* What is your favorite Icelandic word or phrase?* You will be speaking at Tedx Reykjavík tomorrow (October 13), which is awesome! If people want to keep up with what you are doing, where should they follow you?
