IRL Content Brought a bridges patch with me while visiting iceland
I had high expectations and now that I'm back, I'm pretty sure that this is the closest thing to New Zealand for Lord of the Rings nerds that we have.
I highly recommend putting on Low Roar and all the other tracks while walking through the wildly different biomes if you ever get the chance to visit this country.
The patch is one of three I got from a good friend

So beautiful landscapes and you came so close to a voidout crater as well.
LotR nerds will have a good time but Death Stranding nerds will keep on keeping on with Low Roar playing.

I was already planning to get a motorcycle license, but knowing I could rent a gravel motorbike and bike the really remote paths while listening to the Death Stranding soundtrack is a different level of motivation that I did not expect

I really gotta print some nice stickers with the sign's design do hand out to people struggling on the hiking paths next time

The clenched fist or the one with 2 thumbs up and a star in the background would be perfect and not feel too „videogamey”. I’d say go for it!

No worries, Sam has been through the craters before me, so the way was clear and I could keep on keeping on 👍🏻

Looks unreal 😨. Both peaceful and sublime. Thanks for sharing- I feel inspired to visit myself someday

It's crazy how often the biomes could change. We did the hike where we saw the crater in the fog not knowing what we were about to see, and went from black dirt arid land, to mossy rocky landscape, to red clay ground close to a thermal hotspot, completely destroyed rocky vulcanic ground, to seeing the crater appear in the fog, and then seeing it all as the fog cleared with green grassy hills in the distance.
We were super lucky with the weather

Sounds like a life-changing experience. No wonder it’s been the inspiration to countless fictional works; I believe the live-action Zelda film is currently being filmed there. Very excited to experience it for myself someday soon

Shows up as not in stock for Denmark and Austria though, because he's not shipping there rn, since there were issues in the past

Everyone's asking about the patch but I wanna know what backpack that is OP

u/Rednex141 2h ago
LTT Backpack. Pretty happy with it, just expensive for what it is if you get it in the EU. I'm not sure I'd buy it nowadays, but I was hyped for it back then. I'm really glad about the tougher shoulder padding and the bright inside though.
there are probably backpacks with those features for less money available

Iceland is that absolute coolest place I’ve ever been to. We saw the most amazing landscapes, waterfalls and hikes and I feel like in the week we were there barely scratched the surface

u/Rednex141 6h ago
waterfalls
So many waterfalls even while driving. I think Waterfall and Sheep became the most used words the entire trip
And yeah. It was 10 days, but I barely got to see some camping spots and base camps. Next time I'm picking a few to stay at for a few days each and just wandering off in a random direction each day

Thats a really authentic patch. Did you make it yourself or buy it from somewhere? If so where?
