If you’re staying in Reykjavik, there are lots of vegan options though (the noodle…[Read more]
wow the google translate is a genius idea thanks:D
Another great thing is the Vegan Passport. It has every language and a little script of what vegans can and can’t eat and you can look for those words in the “can’t eat” section on the back of ingredient labels!
