Hello, I am Vera. When I was three and a half years old, I lived three months in Iceland.

2
00:00:10,359 --> 00:00:14,380
I was very small, but I remember a lot of things.

3
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:39,219
Iceland is a country in the very north of Europe. It is a very beautiful Iceland.

4
00:00:39,219 --> 00:00:53,520
The landscape is very special. Iceland is the same size as Andalusia, but it has only 360,000 people.

5
00:00:54,179 --> 00:00:57,240
The anti-capital city is Reykjavik.

6
00:00:57,780 --> 00:01:01,960
Reykjavik is here, at the west coast of Iceland.

7
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:27,200
Iceland is a volcanic island. They have natural hot water which comes from hot springs like this. But it stinks because the sulfur. The good thing is that they have a lot of swimming pools. The weather is very cold but you can swim outdoor.

8
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:43,859
The children after school don't go to the park. They meet in the swimming pools. There are a lot of volcanoes. Many are active. Eka and Katla are the most important.

9
00:01:43,859 --> 00:01:54,459
There are many glaciers in Iceland. I visited the biggest one and the most beautiful one with my family.

10
00:01:55,159 --> 00:02:02,719
It is called Balnajokull. It is here and it is the biggest one in Europe.

11
00:02:03,500 --> 00:02:10,759
During the winter in Iceland, the sun doesn't rise at all. The days are totally dark.

12
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:17,759
But when it's very cold, you can see northern lights, in Spanish, auroras boreales.

13
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:25,520
In summer, the sun doesn't set at all, so there is no night.

14
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:33,919
There are many waterfalls in Iceland. The biggest is called Malfost.

15
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:45,919
They speak Icelandic, a very difficult language, but most of the people speak English too.

16
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:51,919
The most popular bird in Iceland is the puffin, who lives in the cliffs.

17
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:57,919
In the Iceland Sea lives many kinds of whales.

18
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:06,199
In the past it was very popular to eat whale meat.

19
00:03:06,199 --> 00:03:21,240
This is spring whale, this is hamper whale, this is orca whale and these are dolphins.

20
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:41,240
This is the flag of Iceland, blue because the sea, white because the ice and the glaciers and red because the lava of the volcanoes.

21
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:49,240
This is a typical jacket of Iceland. I hope you like this video. Bye bye.
