It was what brought us to Iceland, and it brought
us together: we all loved to travel!
One of the unexpected benefits of going to Iceland with SEEDS was that I met people
from all over the world. In fact, I was the only American in my house.
Between the two teams, and including the SEEDS long term volunteers, there were Russians, Irish, Japanese, Korean, French, German, and
Latvian.
The first day, when I met my house mates, we all listed the different countries we'd visited. The feeling of finding other people who were like you in this respect was incredible! We enjoyed sharing stories about our travels and homelands with each other and were pretty open about asking and answering questions. We taught each other cards games and we cooked each other food.
So, not only did I get to see many incredible sites in Iceland, but I also lived with people from all over the world, making for a very multicultural experience.
