The SOLARIS Saves people from extinction

 More than a hundred persons from Palestine, who have received a residence permit in Iceland, have been waiting for months for the help of the Icelandic government to escape the ethnic cleansing of the Israeli government. 

 The government has been inactive for months. People who live in this country and are desperately waiting for their families have repeatedly requested a conversation with the government. Its wishes have been almost exclusively rejected or not answered. 

 The SOLARIS Icelandic humanitarian organization has now managed to save the lives of 12 Palestinian people from Gaza on their own with public funding. Mostly women and children are in this group.

Environment map of Eyrarbakki

Now's a good facility for mobile homes and campers at the Eyrarbakki campsite. It could be a good idea to stay there for a while, as much to see and enjoy in the vicinity. Abundant birdlife and extensive nature is something that makes you stop on a long journey. The little and old houses are also very intriguing, especially a nice to photograph them.

Silent winter

The old village sleeps for the winter. Travelers are not many at this time of year, although winter can be a pleasurable experience. But spring is on its way very soon.
