This enchanting house is located on an island called Elliðaey near Vestmannaeyjar, a small archipelago off the south coast of Iceland. The house was given to singer, Bjork from her motherland as a “Thank You” for putting Iceland on the international map (even though I think Mr Rand McNally put it there first). Some amazing shots of this beautiful house here and here. Thanks to Sinoj for sending us this photo.

    I bet they make shopping lists. Definitely not running over to the neighbor for a cup of sugar on that island.

    Beautiful. Frosty. Clear. Lonesome. Peaceful. Thank you.

    Looks like a better spot to exile someone than a gift to a national icon. Maybe the government was not too fond of her music?

    The only thing missing is me, my kid, two pickle barrels and helmets.

    This is like that house from the Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker that you had to fly to using that dang magic leaf.

    Man, that game was kinda cool. Oh, and the house is awesome.
