Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Once Upon A Wander.
Get an Icelandic hot dog when visiting Iceland.
Go horseback riding in Grundarfjordur if you can.
Book the Forest Lagoon experience directly through their website, not through the ship.
Take the free shuttle from the port; it's a short walk and drive.
Spend the full allowed time at the geothermal spa to enjoy it fully.
Use coin sleeves for pin backer cards to prevent pins from sliding out.
Regularly purge pins that no longer speak to you to make room for new ones.
Organize pins by starting with a centerpiece and working outward.
