OffRoading Three Ice-Caps - We just made a really good off roading tour. Starting up from Thingvellir and heading north towards Langjokull ice-cap. The weather is as good as it can be with clear sky and a light northerly breeze. We can't help but stop to enjoy the mountain view and of course to take pictures.
Offroading Myrdalsjokull The area around Myrdalsjokull ice-cap is one of my favorites. And I think you will agree after reading about our newest offroading tour.

Kazakhstan Offroad - Youre at work. Closed in your office, just after finishing off something you had to do and allow yourself to drift away for a minute. Its the same dream youve had a thousand times: its morning and the car is ready to go. You check the list of supplies for the road one last time, to make sure everythings in.
Kazakhstan Adventure Interview - We were standing in the field, whipped by the freezing early morning wind, admiring a random display of off road skills. Next to us, dressed in ski clothing and prepared for everything, stood a thin man holding his cup of hot coffee with both hands.
