As I spend more time at home, I find myself watching more TV. Occasionally it’s travel-related and eventually I figured it was time to start writing about TV that featured Iceland or Norway or any of the other places I’m particularly fond of.
You’re probably here to read the post about Zac Efron in Iceland. I’ll save you the scroll. It’s here.

I occasionally talk about books here (there’s new a post coming up next week!) and once in a blue moon I’ll do TV, if it’s Iceland or Norway-related. But this is the first time I’ve talked about YouTube. Ed Venturing was supposed to be a “video podcast” but it’s not, it’s a YouTube series and… More YouTube review: Ed Venturing
Because I am all over all things Iceland, when I heard about Zac Efron in Iceland, I went and watched episode one of his new Netflix series, Down to Earth (actually, I had no idea about it but my sister watched it and took sufficient interest to be able to make noises at me that… More Down to Earth with Zac Efron: episode 1, Iceland
