Albert And Guðbjörg

Guðbjörg took me around Reykjavík for several days when I was in Iceland in 2022 and now she’s here visiting her boyfriend Albert. The connection is through Hilda – thank you Hilda!

We enjoy lunch at Casa del Mar, one of my favorite spots to relax and visit.

Then we finished the afternoon with a coffee in my yard and we picked a bag of oranges for Albert to take home.

Let’s try to pronounce Guðbjörg = “Guðbjörg is pronounced GVOÐ-byorg (approximate IPA: /ˈkvʏð.pjœrk/). It is an Icelandic name broken down as “Goo-th” (with a soft, voiced ‘th’ like ‘the’) + “byorg” (with a short ‘o’ sound, often resembling a “u” or “y” sound in English, and a ‘g’ that can sound like a ‘k’).” And here’s what another source says: g-uthbyeurh(is)
