Iceland is hands down my favorite country I’ve visited. Working there for a year or so, even at a slight loss, would be worth it I think

I visited a plant right outside Reykjavik for a client this year. It was a pretty sweet place. I’m in the US though. It is a mining and extraction client.

No connection to our office - but would be a safe assumption that it’s a lot of mining and extraction related work. I don’t know if I would jump to live there full time - cost of living seems crazy high from looking at it as a vacation destination. If I was looking to do a secondment Spain or non-Sydney Australia would be top of my list

No matter where you are there is always government industry...maybe that's what they do. Then you have whatever industries are around shipping, food, retail, banking, utilities, media, advertising, telecommunications this is just basic stuff that's typically everywhere.

The fact that he recognized that his pic might be part of the problem says it all. Law firms need to do better. Sorry, I just wanted to rant.
