We woke up to fog curling over Stokksnes, the van cold and the air sharp. My girlfriend was already outside, camera in hand, chasing the light. I stayed in, staring at the condensation on the window, pretending to tie my boots slower than I needed to. Everyone talks about Iceland’s landscapes—how they’ll leave you speechless. No one mentions the quiet that settles in when you run out of things to say to each other. Nine days in a van, nowhere to hide, and every photo looks like we’re living the dream. But sometimes the only thing more vast than the scenery is the space growing between us. I posted the photo anyway. It got a lot of likes. I didn’t mention how lonely it felt to take it. #Travel #TravelConfessions #RelationshipTruths
