Lovers of arts and culture are in for a real treat in Reykjavík. From the Icelandic sagas to contemporary art, Reykjavík has a buzzing cultural scene. A constant flow of innovative musical happenings, theatrical performances and cultural events keeps locals and visitors entertained all year round.
English is taught as a second language from an early age in Iceland, and pretty much every Icelander is a fluent English speaker. You'll find it easy to make new connections since the language barrier is virtually nonexistent.
