Why should Iceland be call Ice-land? It is quite understandable that those who haven't been here believe that the country is covered in ice all year round, which, as a matter of fact, it isn't. One of the first settlers of the country gave this name to it around year 1000 when he saw some icebergs in one of the fjords in the west.
Well, we think it's really a n-ice name.
The climate here has been becoming warmer in the last few years. Quite often the temperature rises above 20°C in June, July and August. During the winter it can go as low as -10°C, but only very seldom, it's mostly around 0 to-5°C.
