Creator's Key Takeaways
I've just disembarked a cruise where I went to a town that is so remote that you're not allowed to die or give birth there.
The cruise was 12 days long and I didn't see the sun set for 10 days because it just didn't set.
This cruise was anything but ordinary and it has to be seen to be believed.
I would love to come back to spend more time in Iceland and Spalbad, Norway, too.
