Hi Gerardo

I have often been butterflying with my mind out of the window enjoying
the marvels of the landscape while begin a passenger of a Jeep, taking
no notice of the conversations happening next to me.

In our Open Space Jeep ride with frequent stops for sites and
conversations and many Jeeps, the butterflies will see the sites and
find them sleeves in different jeeps all of the time.

I think Ill draft out a fun 3 day tour and an empowering 5 day tour
for this new moving by jeep open space format, with hot-spring outdoor
thermal pools, geysers, volcanic lava-fields, waterfalls, glaciers,
Nordic buffets, green energy sites and all the traditional fun stuff,
ready for a topic and an invited group.

with a breeze from Iceland
Kári
