"Eyjafjallajökull"

"island-mountain-glacier"

Pronounced (roughly, I'm still learning): "Ey-ya fyatla yer-koolt"

Really difficult language for native English speakers. The pronunciations are very tricky.

To your second question, almost everyone in Reykjavik speaks English.

Source: Wife and I have traveled to this beautiful country twice, planning our third trip this year. It’s intoxicating and the people are lovely. Trying to learn basic Icelandic although it’s not really necessary while you’re there.

At that point I’d probably assume John has been kidnapped and I’m about to get murdered.

... Yeah I’m probably not the right person for a scavenger hunt surprise lol.

But this is awesome and you do really cool stuff!

No, only America has access to real doctors (hence the price). Frankly, I've no idea how anyone in the rest of the world lives beyond 30.

Are there normally candidates to vote for that we would want in power? The way I see it you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. Republican or Democrat.

Voting blindly and along party lines as most Americans do is an equally likely way to put people in power with malicious intent.
