Outstanding drone footage. Because you're not yelling at the microphone, we can fully appreciate the nature sounds and the exhaust. Soft commentary works brilliantly, thank you!
Motorbiking in iceland and other european countries is in my to do list ! Love from India ❤
For a Norwegian, Iceland suits you well. I have been to both Norway and Iceland and I think both countries are absolutely great for their natural beauty. The landscapes are phenomenal!! I am glad to be able to join you on this new adventure. I am really looking forward to the next episode. Ride safe and enjoy!!
Thank you! I agree, nordic nature has a special place in my heart! Don't think I'll ever get tired of riding in these places.
I've been there for 4 weeks and wasn't enough to know all wonders of the Country!
I can relate, I feel like I have to go back sometime!
I keep rewatching this video. Thanks to you and your solo motorcycle vids one of the biggest dreams is to tour northern europe on a motorcycle. One day!
Keep smiling Runa it makes my day with you on your journey
I've done it twice and it really is the best way to tour Iceland. The F roads are amazing. Glad you are did this!
Beginning of another amazing adventure. Thanks for taking all of us along.
Think my heart grew a bit bigger at 13:59, very peaceful views, so calming. Thank you for that and good luck
Thank you for taking me to Iceland this afternoon!
Laid up in bed recovering from surgery for the next three months, so I’m happy that I found your channel.
You’re very talented with making these videos! Excellent work!
Thank you! Hope you recover well!

Nahi degi bhai.
Absolutely love your travels! The joy you exhibit, the sense of sharing the experience with is, and the great videos all make it so wonderful. Thanks!!
the important thing is to keep up the enthusiasm, I always pray for good health, always be happy, stay focused on what is running now happy new year
Wonderful fluming. I am seeing world's beautiful places through you. Thanks a lot.
Some of us are living our adventures thru your travels.. Looking forward to more..
Scenery-wise, I have always found my native Iceland to be Norway's tiny brother, our main redeeming feature being that trees rarely get in the way of the view wherever you go. We are also "bigger" that our bigger cousin Norway when it comes to unreliable weather. I found your comments regarding the good weather forecast when you were riding away from Seyðisfjörður SOOO Nordic: Let's count our blessings only when we have actually seen the forecast come true!
In my opinion, Iceland has SO much more to offer than Norway, but maybe I'm just spoiled from living here! I appreciate the nordic nature, even if it comes with the cost of unpredictable weather. It's part of the adventure - makes you enjoy the sunny days even more 😊
Thank you for sharing the breathtaking footage of Iceland's landscapes. It was such an enjoyable road to ride on with an adventure bike. It makes me crave being in the midst of nature. I look forward to more beautiful footage and adventure stories from you in the future.
LOL at the guys trying to show off by going faster and harder. That was hilarious.
Its always a pleasure to watch your video because you are always cheerful even in facing the unknown. Just admire your courage and resilient in solo adventures. I believe you are tougher than many guys out there. Be safe.
Piękny kraj. Na Twój film trafiłem całkiem przypadkowo. Naprawdę podziwiam Twoją odwagę co do samotnej wyprawy. Tak mi się spodobał ten odcinek że z ciekawością oglądne kolejne.
Did it once too. Have a fond memory of the salmon, very cheap, really good, that you can buy pretty much everywhere and that we ended up cooking pretty much every evening.
Life itself is a journey and adding to it in a journey is the most enjoyable and stories to tell or remember sweet memories while at the end of the journey.
Ms Runa
I personally feel that you are a lucky personally. God has blessed you with courage confidence and determination attributed with hard work ice land travelling seems to be challenging. Thank you
For the courtesy for showing this cold area of the world take care of yourself
Way to go girl..I did it by foot car and you name it back in the day alone..iceland fantastic
I was able to enjoy a trip abroad in front of my computer. Thank you for letting me enjoy this wonderful trip to the sea and the highlands.
From the rider of other side of the earth.
Iceland is not flat---many, many mountain ranges----my kind of county!!! Thanks for taking us along----places we would never see or feel!!!
非常羡慕你在这么年轻的时候就能够完成自己的梦想!一路平安!
Thank you! I feel very lucky 😊
4:00-4:30 SO BEAUTIFUL❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👍🥰🥰🤗👏🤗🤗🤗👍🤗🤗👏😍👏😍👏🥰👏🥰🥰👏🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👏🥰🥰❤🥰❤🥰❤🥰🥰👏🥰👏🥰❤🥰❤🥰🥰👏🥰👏🥰🥰👏😍😍😍🥰👍🥰👍🥰🥰🥰🥰👏🥰
Biker camaraderie is something else, as soon as bikes are parked everyone start chatting, if it was by car, it would be completely different. Great episode Runa, thanks for sharing such awesome journey, can't wait for the next ones!! 👍👍
My wife layed her Rebel500 down in a roundabout. I was like 50 m behind her. Before I could enter the roundabout, there were a 60+ biker and a ~25y/o superbike rider in that scene blocking off the whole traffic and seeing to her and her bike. Man... cameraderia among bikers is just something else.
Just discovered your videos. Beautiful and authentic. Not another “Ms Goodie Two Shoes” is so refreshing.
The most beautiful girl around one of the most beautiful countries. You are truly an inspiration. ❤
You´re so sweet!! Thanks for sharing your trip for all of us biker that are grounded for whatever reason. Is so sweet to travel alongside you and how you explpain all the details of the geography and the weather.
Talking about your thermal protection for your hands, There are some proper hand guards for winter that doesn allow wind or rain to go to your gloves, search for them.
BLessing and all the best for you!!
Haha thank you, I'm glad you like it! It's a pleasure to be sharing it all with you guys 😊 hanks for the tip, I'll check that out!
Versatility: Motorcycles come in various types, such as sport bikes, cruisers, adventure bikes, and touring bikes, catering to different riding styles and preferences.
Just discovered your channel Runa, after watching the 1st episode, I can truly say it's a breath of fresh air. So nice to see a stripped back natural flow of a motorcycle travel adventure, you made me & no doubt others feel we were there with you experiencing the splendour of the scenery. Looking forward to seeing more, well done. Daz.
Thank you so much, that is very kind of you 😊
I went in iceland in december 2022, that was a wonderful experience. I'd like to go there in summer too
So many more travel options in Europe than North America as far as variety to culture and geography. Nicely done!
🇦🇺 Oz here...looking forward to your journey in Iceland, safe travels Runa...🤙🦘🇦🇺
A new year and a new series. Good stuff and looking forward to the rest of the journey.
Nice. How I missed for travels, even started to forget how cool it is.
That view of Iceland from the ferry was just breathtaking, I'm not surprised you had a big smile on your face😁Those gravel roads looked horrendous, I'm sure you were glad to see tarmac again😉You sure lucked out with the weather at the start, what a brilliant first video from Iceland👌Happy New Year and all the best for 2023 Runa, I can't wait for the next episode👍
Thanks Rab! 😊 I was SO excited to finally get on the road, it was the perfect start indeed! And it just get's better 😄

Start off in Chandigarh head over Sach Pass, SUral Bhatori then around past Keylong, over Shinku La Pass explore Zanskar for a few weeks, past Kargil and then north of Leh, then back south over Moore Plains, take the left before Rohtang Pass to Losar then a few weeks exploring the side valleys of Spiti

I was in Iceland a few years ago in the car and I fell madly in love with it. I hope to go there soon by motorcycle too. For now I dream with your videos.
Ps.: I don't speak English well. Do you have the possibility to put subtitles in Italian as well? 😊
Italian subtitles activated for this vide, and I will try to remember for future videos as well! 😊

This is amazing! Gonna add "Tour Iceland on a motorcycle" to my bucket list!
Visited the Shetland Islands 3 yrs ago, loved the light! Constant wind you may as well be out on a boat. Nice way to travel.👋🙏
Shetland islands is on my bucket list, it looks like a great place to travel even though I am sure the weather can be rough!
Hi Nice to see a beautiful young lady back on her bike what a great video I can't wait to see all the other videos and keep them coming have a safe trip xxxx
Absolutely brilliant, really enjoyed that, looking forward to the next videos.
Two and half days on the ferry!!!!
Liked your words when you started on the gravel. 🏍🏍👌👌
Favourite moments in the video, the gravel...f#@king hell, and the clouds...it might seem strange. Gorgeous scenery 😍 Loving this new series already! ♥️📷🏍️💕
Absolutely amazing!! Iceland is for brave people, you are a very brave woman riding in than incredible country but the conditions are normaly very bad to ride on motorbike, congratulation!!!
Sei una persona meravigliosa, che con la tua,splendida moto viaggi tutto il mondo. Così puoi visitare tanti paesi, e vedere tante cose belle. Io ti auguro che tu possa, incontrare persone fantastiche nei tuoi viaggi. Tutto quello che tu fai proviene dal tuo cuore e dall'anima che c'è in te. Grazie mille ciao.
Hi Runa, I'm slowly working my way through your Iceland videos, just wonderful epic scenery, your commentary is sublime and so engaging to listen to, music is terrific. I've been riding motobikes for many decades now, since the age of 13 and your videos are a real treat to watch. I feel just like I am riding your bike, you have an excellent sense of what to capture in your videos. Your comments when you are on gravel are so amusing, dont be afraid of it, it makes you a better more skillfull rider. Soon you will have one foot down and sliding through corners no worries !! Happy trails from Australia. 🤩😊
Have no idea why your video popped up on my TH-cam feed, but I’m glad it did! What an adventure it must’ve been!
Glad to have been found! Welcome aboard, hope you'll enjoy the following episodes 😄
Beautiful moto vloging plus the background instrumentals were so soothing to ears.... and also the breathtaking landscapes are just mesmerizing. Love from INDIA.
Great Video Runa. Looking forward to the rest of the series. 😊
Take 10-15 psi out of your tires on loose surfaces. You will double, or triple, the contacyt patch. Just be sure to air up when you get back to asphault. A sharp turn, or manuver, can pull the tire's bead off the rim. Not a problem on dirt, only of stick ysurfaces.
I liked this a LOT
Well I was stunned by your first video. I was completely unaware of your channel, but I was already won over, both by what you show and how you detail your adventures in a simple and fun way, as well as the landscapes.
Last year I was in Denmark for a week and fell in love with the country and the culture.
I actually laughed out loud from your response when you went on to the gravel road, as I have said exactly the same too many times. Great videos and envy evoking, but you are inspiring me to get back to traveling on two wheels again.😄
Happy New Year Runa, and safe travels. What a stunning country and you present it so well. 🥰 I can't wait for the next one 😊
Lovely Video! Great capturing of the country's rich scenery. Wishing you all the luck for your future trips!
Enjoyable vid, especially that bit when you came upon the gravel road 😅. Enjoy and stay safe...
Onya bubs thanks for your time matey
Wens jou een gelukkig 2023...en veel veilige motorkilometers🤘en vooral blij dat we mogen meegenieten van uw reizen👍
Amazing channel and adventure from California!!!
I think itchy boots is traveling with a script crew this channel is much more natural I like you ❤
Delightful. Especially enjoyed the moment when you hit the loose stuff for the first time@*?! Can’t wait to see the rest of Iceland. I’m sure it will be amazing. Thanks for sharing!
First time I’ve seen your channel. I’ll keep watching.🍺🍺
You are Amazing and Awesome driver of motorcycle it’s just like being with you Amazing and Awesome Scenery
Hi Runa, I just love your relaxed way of presenting your video's. No hectic or panic, even if you did ride off in the wrong direction, just keep topping up the tank at every opportunity 😉. A Happy New Year to you Runa 🍾🥂🤗
Haha thank you! That's part of the adventure for me - I might end up somewhere I did not plan on going, and it's probably still going to be great 😃
Hi, subscribed as Itchy Boots recommended your channel. Looking forward to your videos. Good luck! 🎉
may everything be simplified..enjoy your ride
Love this channel, the pictures, the drone videos and your narration. Very Cool stuff Runa.
DWest from Northern CA, USA.

Safe journey little lady!
Looking forward to follow and enjoy your new season. Ride safe. The icelandic landscape is truly amazing
Runa, happy new year! Looking forward for you next adventure. So long.
