A lot to love in this one for me... I share a deep appreciation for Iceland (I have only been once, but on a motorcycle!)... my first car was also a Saab 900 Turbo (1985, baby!), Type II fun, and OF COURSE Melissa's Salty Sweet Cookies! I am going to confirm that they are the best... and one of my go-tos for thank you gifts, RSVP regrets (they'd often rather have her cookies than me anyway!), and family surprise treats. Thank you for the smile-generating shares today, Mia!

So cool you were here on a motorcycle. Did you go around the island? Must have been cold!

1+ on the Salty Sweet cookies 🥰

Also, Cecily, you were in my dream last night, teaching me how to be a better parent. 😅 (Family vacation = 🎢)

Can’t wait for next edition of ClearLife! I have some catching up to do.

I love hearing about how people connect deeply to certain cities, countries, or places. We might feel more ourselves in certain cities, or places might unlock a part of ourselves that we're just beginning to discover. Which is why travel to far away places can often lead us closer to the home within ourselves. Can't wait to hear more about your Iceland travels, Mia. Like Jeffrey above and Cecily below, I had a Saab 900 too - I miss that car!

Saab 900 club ftw! But seriously, thank you, Theresa. I love the thought that travel can often lead us closer to the home within ourselves. So well said 🥰 You are an inspiration yourself!

Wonderful interview with Jeffrey! I would love to visit Iceland and all the Scandinavian countries someday. Every time I come across architecture and interiors from this part of the world, I'm just mesmerized by their muted colors and minimalist aesthetics.

Yes! You would love it. Today we’re going to a photography museum. I’ll surely be thinking of you. Be well, Stella!

Great interview! I have always felt drawn to the north and visited Scandinavia quite frequently, but Iceland is still on my list of dream locations. I have only been to the airport and was very tempted to miss my connecting flight for a fews days in Iceland. :) Hopefully another time...

Hello from Iceland! Yes, you should definitely do this ;) I’m surprised at how good the food is here too. I like being here during the days of endless sun. I think it would be quite different in the cold and dark!
