We travel towards the Arctic Circle during the Winter Solstice to experience the Northern Lights and quirky Christmas antics. Our entrepreneurial filmmaker, Eyþór, lives in Flateyri, a small town in the Westfjords, where he owns and operates the oldest bookstore in Iceland, passed down from his great-grandfather. In Iceland, democracy thrives and storytelling is cherished as an age-old tradition.
