Iceland is known for its incredible landscapes. Millions of tourists flock here every year to visit. But how much do they know about the people who actually live on the island?
Euromaxx reporter Brant Dennis traveled to Reykjavík for a taste of local life. Icelandic journalist Ingunn Kristjánsdóttir teaches him what Icelandic lifestyle is all about - and he probably imagined it would be easier. Because he has to jump into the ice-cold sea and taste fermented shark.
What is the verdict of the locals? Does Brant have what it takes to be an Icelander?
