I traveled to Iceland alone! It was my first solo trip ever and it probably won't be the last :) Hope you love the video! Shop Prints on my Website Below! ➭ katecote.wixsi... Follow me on Instagram! ➭ @katecote_
Well done you. My first solo foreign trip was also Iceland 🇮🇸 at the age of 52. It’s great travelling with my lady or friends and family but being alone is a different experience and one I enjoyed very much. I return to Iceland tomorrow for the 5th time. As excited as the first time and I really do love this country.
Hey there. Iceland is looking good for a solo traveler. May I ask you how long did you stay? Did you find it as expensive as I have heard a lot of people say? I go solo to Vegas 3 or 4 times a year. Is it quite a lot more expensive than a Vegas trip? ...not the flight but the food etc. I was thinking about just staying in Reykjavik Iceland for 3 days.
Doing anything alone had been difficult for me up until this year. I didn’t love myself the way I needed too. I’m now planning a trip overseas alone and seeing this video and how happy you are doing it is emotional and beautiful. I never understood how someone could be so happy alone and now that I get it, I yearn for so much more. This was such a beautiful video. Thank you!
@@Corkery-pk9wz Did you go? I wish more of my female friends would stop thinking about the reasons why they would NEVER travel solo overseas. What you discover from the first moment is YOU WILL NOT BE ALONE- even if you want to! You will meet so many interesting people-even if you are not a "people" person. *edit* Yes, I'm a guy, but my comments still stand!
@@phila3884 I did. I ended up going to Iceland and staying at kex hostel. The best thing I’ve ever done in my entire life and it gave me so many amazing memories. You’re not wrong about being alone. Never alone if you don’t wanna be. I went this past December.
I leave for Iceland today on my first solo trip. I was a bit nervous about traveling by myself. After watching your video it made me believe in myself. I'm excited to see the beautiful landscapes of Iceland. You're awesome! Thank you so much for the inspiration.
Im planning to go solo to iceland. First i was scare but after see your video, i believe can do it. Iceland is my dream trip. Hving no drama with travel mate is better for dream trip.

Great video, beautifuly done :) Just a note - You have drone shots from many places where drones are actually not allowed (and signs show that), like Jokulsarlon. I'd try to avoid that, this is the reason drone restrictions are getting more and more common.
I can’t believe the quality of your content. So professional! I’ve been dying to see this video and I love content like this so much. Keep doing what you love!
I am trying to organize my plan to Iceland first by myself out of my comfort zone. I have been many place by myself but this one is another level. Thanks for share with us your amazing journey and how to discover our inner strength.
Since I discovered this video last year, I’m watching it from time to time and never get tired. What a great vibe, good shots and it gets me inspired to do it myself! Thank you
I was very hesitant to travel to iceland alone, not to share this experience with anyone. this video inspired me to put my fears aside and just go for it. Just out of collage, not over rushing anything and speaking these wise words. knowing your own happiness is worth a lot! Thanks for this one.
So glad you loved the solo travel experience so much! I started doing the same when I was 55 and have been doing it ever since! Wouldn’t travel any other way now! Heading to Iceland in 58 days so am so excited and so loved your little video! I hope you get to do more solo trips! Happy travels!
I just went to Iceland the end of September 2022 my son got married there it was a first out of country experience for all of us I get anxiety about traveling too many worries but I knew I was not missing my son‘s biggest day of his life so I worked on myself totally had no anxiety felt so free such a beautiful country great people absolutely no panic attacks about flying such a beautiful wedding that was totally a once in a lifetime experience and we did meet a few people that were traveling solo it’s totally amazing to me after I seen your video now I understand why people do itI have to say if it wasn’t for my daughter being the navigator on our trip I would still be stuck in Minneapolis airport😂🤣🤣😂 and I wish you safe and great travels in the future🙂
Hello, I'm a Brazilian fan! I've always liked to travel alone, but I've never traveled abroad alone. Next week will be my first, I'll go to Portugal. I got a lot of inspiration watching this video, thank you very much.
Kate Cote - This is a beautifully captured, edited and engaging video - I enjoyed every last second. - the TH-cam algorithm has failed you! - this should have way more views!
i chance upon your video while researching on iceland. I was planning to find someone to go with, but with this, ive decided that im gonna go alone!! Thank you!!
been thinking about whether to get a driver's license. just cause ill never use it in where i live (owning a car is pretty much a liability where I live) but when I think about traveling to countries like Iceland. hahaha, I feel like ill have no choice. i mean i do but cars make it convenient
Very well done on the video! I did my first solo trip to Iceland 6 months ago and this was awesome seeing someone do the same. By the way, what drone did you have in the air?
Hello Kate ,Nice video . I would like to go on a trip to iceland during this summer.I don't have a license to drive.Planning to spend 3-4 weeks in iceland .Could you please let me know if it would be possible to completely tour iceland by using public transport and on foot.Did anyone does it .Any updates on the public transport.Planning to stay in hostels/airbnb.Please do share some views. Thanks
What camera did you take? I'm going in a couple of months and I'm taking the GoPro 7 hero black and my smartphone (+ tripods and selfie stick).. You think that would be sufficient? Also, i'm not a photographer. I am that guy who stops everywhere and takes a million photos without really seeing the place.
Hi, I am planning to visit Iceland solo in October - November, could you help me with hostels that you stayed in, the places you visited solo and the the group tours you took to visit places
Hi Catie that's awesome!! I use a Canon 5DMIV for photo and the Sony A7C for video. And also the DJI Mavic Mini drone for the aerial shots! Hope this helps :)

Im watching this while in Iceland on a solo trip lol
That takes a lot of heart and strength. Beautiful story and great work. Can't wait to see more in the future. I loved the spinning transition.
Thank you so much for saying that, it means a lot!!

You inspired me to make the trip. I’m off to Reykjavik in two days solo. Thank you for this video. This trip will change my life.

You have no idea how much this has encouraged me to go on a solo trip to the land of ice & fire.

Life is too short to regret. You are so good at storytelling. Love and light. 💃🌻🌼
I love the shot of the 500-1000$ Mamiya RB67 camera just chilling on a shelf in some random town in Iceland lol…

Did you make it to Iceland?
Where is that 2:00 to 2:20? I’ll be in Iceland next month and would love to go to that spot.
Skogafoss waterfall! Has an awesome hike right next to the falls 🙌
This is sooo dope!

Is it safe to travel alone to Iceland? I wanna do it but im scared
Hi Kate,
Amazing video. Can you share what camera you used to film. I am looking into a solo trip and I want to document it :)
Hi Lily! I use a Canon 5DMIV for photography and Sony A7C for video. Hope this helps!
You're so brave! your videos are amazing.. what camera you used? can't wait to upload my video from ICeland soon.. ne subscriber by the way...
Thank you so much! I used a Sony A7C and my iPhone! Tag me in it when you've uploaded, would love to see it! Glad you're here :)
Inspiring. Thanks
I am going next week-- alone!
What camera did you take? I'm going in a couple of months and I'm taking the GoPro 7 hero black and my smartphone (+ tripods and selfie stick).. You think that would be sufficient?

One year later i will do the same in May 26, alone in Iceland. Rent a car and explore =) Good video
Hi,
I am planning to visit Iceland solo in October - November, could you help me with hostels that you stayed in, the places you visited solo and the the group tours you took to visit places
Love this! Looking to plan my first solo trip to Iceland as well. What devices did you use for your photo and video?
Hi Catie that's awesome!! I use a Canon 5DMIV for photo and the Sony A7C for video. And also the DJI Mavic Mini drone for the aerial shots! Hope this helps :)
Did you bring a drone?
what cameras ,edit software and drone did u use for this video??
Mental note: stay at a place with free breakfast 😅 eat Nutella and bread for lunch and dinner
do you have travel itinerary of your trip?
Is Iceland cold
In a way only a country with “ice” in the name could be
I went at the end of Sept. 2021. I brought to many warm things.
Cold at sometimes, hiking & walking keeps you warm.
What did you film this on? It's gorgeous. Please let me know!
Thank you so much!! Sorry for the late reply, but I use the Sony A7C!
Umm, so who was filming you?
Hello Kate,I'm sankapali from Sri Lanka.
would you like to be my friend?
i wanna be like you so much, if only i have the time and money
Sorry, but this is not really iceland, 👎👎👎
