TRAVEL JOURNAL • PHOTOGRAPHS & WORDS BY AARON HAXTON
ICELAND • HOTEL RANGA
JOURNAL NO.108
Touching down in Iceland, something feels different. The grey sky feels heavy and expansive — as if the sky is somehow larger there. The landscape from the airport exit begins to tickle my nerves as we step into the unknown. A cocktail of excitement and anxiety: what wonderful things will we discover, new experiences had — but also, will I eat something questionable and find myself puking off of the third floor balcony in the middle of the night? (That happened) Or drink something that leaves me chained to a toilet with an exploding ass? (Also happened) These are the things we are willing to risk, in hopes to experience something unforgettable - you can’t always get the good without the ugly.
.
Traveling in a group of eight, we file out of the airport one by one: producer, model, influencer, model/influencer, influencer/model, director.. all bumbling down the sidewalk attempting to interpret the unclear directions we’ve been given to the car rental, whilst looking like a heard of wild kittens in this unfamiliar land. After finally making our way there and getting all the arrangements sorted — the van pulls around, looking like a real dumbass. This shit-box looks like it’s ready to deliver snow cones in Reykjavik, and we have just the thing to fill it with: a bunch of clowns. And oh lovely, it’s a manual. Roll call goes around the group of who can drive a stick — no. no. no. no. and more no’s. Great, I’m the lucky winner to drive our Scooby Doo mobile around the wet and icy terrain for the next week. Here we go.

Emphasis on a piece of text can go here. maybe it's an image though.
