Going to Iceland

The title of this blog, I realize, is a bit of a pickle. It implies that I will be in a constant state of travel without actually arriving. Of course, I fully intend to make my way to the northernmost (June 18th to August 4th).

The title of this blog takes its name from a Mountain Goats song. The Mountain Goats are known for, among other things, series of songs that appear across many albums. One such series, the "Going to..." series, is, as described by Wikipedia, "generally about needing to get out of a place and/or thinking life will magically improve by moving somewhere new."
