Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
My memories of my hometown Keflavík are growing stronger and stronger.
Grandmother Margaret, who had a broad vision, became a symbol of sacrifice, spending half her life waiting for her lover to return and the other half mourning the departure of her beloved son. Uncle Sojur was a child of the sea, and obeying his nature also meant betraying his family. The fathers were not lucky enough to inherit happiness.
The ancient history of the Eastfjords keeps creeping closer to Keflavík’s past.
The talent I want to have is the ability to create peace.
