You can reach me by sending me an e-mail to info[at]iheartreykjavik.net. I’m also on Facebook (please Like me), on Twitter (I would love it if you follow me), on Flickr (you can become my friend on Flickr too), on Tumblr (my Tumblr is kick ass) , on YouTube (friend me on the YouTube) and even on Vimeo (check out my channel). You can also follow my every move on Foursquare (stalk me) and subscribe to my RSS feed (does anybody use that anymore?)

Help me out

Although I sometimes get invited to tag along on trips and excursions, everything else I have to pay for out of my own pocket.  I also have to pay for hosting and other services that I use for the site. It’s not a lot of money but a lot of small things start to add up after a while. If you enjoy this site and you have a few cents to spare, I would surely appreciate it if you could make a small donation. I can offer a shout out on Facebook and Twitter for every donation over 5 dollars, just leave your info in the comment field on Paypal.
