The name of the country itself hints that the climate there is not very warm. And this is where all of its charm is hiding: it’s like the Snow Queen looking at you with her cold piercing eyes. And you can spend ages looking at this country: the waterfalls, the rocks, the volcanos, the beaches with black sand, and 8 months a year when you can see the Northern Lights. All these things make Iceland a country from a parallel reality that anyone would love to go to, at least for a little vacay.
We at Bright Side think that there should be things to fuel our dreams and this article does exactly that. Now is probably the best time to start saving for a trip to Iceland to see its beauty with your own eyes. It’s definitely worth it.
“My sister rented an apartment in the north of Iceland for Christmas, and this is her view.”
Before 1987, every Thursday in Iceland, there were no TV broadcasts.
The people from Iceland born before 1987 joke that they were probably conceived on a Thursday. The thing is, Thursdays were the days of communication when people were supposed to pay more attention to each other. This is why the only channel in the country at the time didn’t work on Thursdays.

Jennifer Garner spots wheelchair-bound homeless man without shoes – her next move has people in tears
AuthorAvokadoReading3 minViews1.1k.Published by18.09.2024
When it seemed like there was nothing more that Jennifer Garner could do to win over her adoring fans worldwide, the well-known actress has suddenly done something so generous that it would soften even the hardest hearts.
The 51-year-old woman reportedly noticed a wheelchair-bound homeless man in a parking lot near Santa Monica Beach, California.
It doesn’t take a sharp mind to imagine how the majority of other A-list celebrities would have simply got in their car and gone away. Jennifer Garner is one somebody who is not like her.
We all adore Jennifer Garner because she is a good-hearted, grounded individual who has shown herself time and time again throughout her career.
Unlike most of her well-known counterparts, the Elektra star has a background that distinguishes her. She has accomplished incredible feats, such as rescuing her family’s farm to preserve her ancestry, striving to normalize baby bumps following childbirth, and demonstrating that developing wrinkles and folds as one ages is normal.

Just last week, Garner made headlines when she offered her 85-year-old father a ride in the vehicle he had driven when he was younger. Her name is now being mentioned once more, but this time it’s in reference to a kind deed that demonstrates her altruism and thoughtfulness.

According to reports, Garner observed a homeless man who was obviously in need of assistance earlier this week as she was at a parking lot on Santa Monica Beach.
The actress allegedly rolled down her car window to strike up a conversation with the hapless stranger. In addition to giving the man in the wheelchair a bag containing important items, she also noticed that he was not wearing any shoes.

Upon seeing this, Garner exited her vehicle, knelt by the man, and began dressing his feet with socks.
That was such a precious time.
Not content to stop there, the 13 Going on 30 actress attempted to offer the man her shoes after removing them.
Even though it was immediately apparent that the shoes were too small, Garner was not going to give up. She approached a paparazzi who was pursuing her in the area and requested for assistance.
She inquired, “What size feet do you have?” according to Page Six. “Can I get him your shoes? He is in need of shoes.
When the photographer inquired about the man’s size, Garner said that the homeless man was “ten and a half.”
“Well, I’m eleven years old! Do you want me to hand it to him? I’m able to deliver it to him,” the paparazzo said. To his credit, the photographer readily surrendered his shoes and refused to accept cash from Garner.
Of course, anyone who has followed Garner’s life and career closely won’t be surprised by her generosity. The actress has a long history of supporting those in need; more than ten years ago, she collaborated with Save the Children.
She previously told Southern Living, “Even though I did not grow up poor, I was surrounded by it and I always said I was a generation and a holler removed from rural poverty.”
“And I looked about, finding Save the Children in the process. Since they unquestionably set the standard for aiding children in rural America.
