My favorite science experience was visiting and doing research in Iceland. You can see me here floating on a small iceberg in front of part of the Myrdalsjokull Glacier in Iceland. Iceland has a variety of geological, geographical, and biological mysteries to experience and study. These include glaciers, volcanoes, geysers, waterfalls, hot springs, tectonic plates and earthquakes, Viking ruins, wild blueberries, Icelandic horses, and Icelandic sheep.
