March 20, 2015 Solar eclipse

•  March 20, 2015 Solar eclipse in Faroe Islands

 March 20, 2015, a total solar eclipse took place, It was only visible from land in the Faroe Islands and Svalbard

I booked with a company months in advance but my visa was delayed and I rebooked to book so many flights loosing so much money but it was not ment to be
I read that it was cloudy and people were not able to view it anyway so even if I did go I wouldn't have seen it but I did book other activities which the company refused to refund
This experience taught me to not use eclipse tours, they are way over priced and not worth it. You can watch the eclipse anywhere, you don't need an expensive tour to take you there

* : so I did go to the Maldives as a weekend getaway on July 18-21. I will write a detailed blog about my experience 

•  Diving in Austria's Green Lake

Green Lake in Austria’s Hochschwab Mountains is actually part of a hiking trail in the winter, but the snow melts in early summer and creates a completely clear lake for divers to explore – just look at that visibility!
The lake has a grassy bottom, complete with underwater trails, park benches, and bridges, so makes for quite an interesting and unusual dive – though the marine life is somewhat lacking!

•  Dive in Silfra, the fissure between the continents in Iceland

the Silfra fissure is actually a crack between the North American and Eurasian continents, meaning that you dive or snorkel right where the continental plates meet and drift apart about 2cm per year.
Silfra is the only place where one can dive or snorkel directly in the crack between two continental plates.

•  Northern Lights 

which can also be seen in Iceland.
The snowy wilds of Canada and Alaska are fine viewing spots, but for most of us it is more affordable, and convenient, to fly to Iceland or northern Scandinavia, commonly known as Lapland. Here it is possible to see the lights from late September to early April, with October to November and February to March considered optimum periods. and while the aurora can be sighted at any moment, 9pm to 2am tends to be prime viewing time
