He fixed a hole in the fence and kept me on the road.

Days spent in Iceland.

As I drove to Vopnafjörður, I came across this field worker. He was fixing a hole in the  fence to prevent the sheep from crossing the road. On that specific day, it was cold. Very cold. As I was driving to the north, the snow started falling and the roads got particularly bad. I will always remember this 12 hour car ride in the middle of nowhere with snow pouring down on the cold landscape. Night fell and I continued on the lonesome road. With many small encounters, I stayed awake. Whether it was a mountain, a sheep or one of the few human beings out in the nature, they truly made this experience unique.

Thank you for fixing the fence.
