Just like everyone else in Iceland, the office of The Grapevine is lucky enough to receive people from all over the world. And of course, just like everyone else in Iceland, these people have opinions they can’t wait to share. In “First impressions” The Grapevine’s interns share their thoughts on Icelandic culture and Icelanders’ habits. Learn first-hand about what they think is weird, inspiring, and flat-out gross about Iceland. And since comparisons are inevitable, they’re bound to share things about their home countries. With food reviews, media talks, and a lot more questions than answers, they show that Iceland is a beautiful but confusing place.
In this episode, interns Inês and Sam feast on the best Icelandic Christmas treats. Some snacks make their taste buds rejoice, but our interns also put their taste buds through some tough times. From Laufabrauð and hangikjöt, to Malt og Appelsín, they taste the true flavours of Jóla (and try not to diss them too hard).
