Christmas for Siggi Bjarni
What is an essential Christmas tradition?
My family and me, we usually go to nearby woodland and where we pick our Christmas tree.
Which 66°North product do you use the most?
I think my most used product is the OK down jacket. I use it a lot in my daily life and when I am going hiking.
What is your favourite place to travel to in Iceland?
My favourite place is Öræfasveit, over the years my connection has grown stronger to that place and I still have many activities to explore there.
How will Christmas be for you this year?
I just moved to the city of Reykjavík so I will probably be staying at home, taking it easy and visiting my siblings. If the weather allows it, I will certainly go hiking.
Do you have a favourite Christmas song?
Jólasynir with Land og synir.
What is your favourite Christmas movie?
Home Alone is a classic.
