Reykjavík Trip

Useful tip for accommodation in Reykjavik The best place to stay in Reykjavik is the city campsite. It’s a huge camping space with brilliant facilities. Several bathrooms with showers and toilets, big kitchen area with indoor dining space tables and BBQs outside. Moreover, it is located just next door to the geothermally heated swimming pool, where you can relax in hot tubs (check more info here). One cool place about that place is a “free stuff shelf”. It’s a space, close to the outdoor sitting area, where people leave things that they don’t need anymore. Reykjavik is the main hub for arrivals and departures from the country, therefore the amount of people passing by that place is huge. And so is the number of things that they leave behind. We were on the campsite during our first night in Iceland and thanks to that we managed to get most of the needed things there. Many food items, camping gas bottles, toiletries (also toilet paper!), even sleeping mats and pillows. I’ve seen some girls getting the full tent from there. It’s amazing – nothing is wasted because instead of throwing things away other people can re-use them. Just remember to return back there before departing from the country, so you can leave all the things that you don’t need anymore and help others.
