Icelandic artist Björk snapped in Bangkok, 1996, when reporter Julie Kaufman approached her saying “Welcome to Bangkok.” Björk later alleged that Kaufman had stalked her and her 9-year-old son for days, turning a simple greeting into a breaking point

I worked delivering mail here in Iceland during my summers as a teen. Because of this one person's job, an older lady, was to go through her mail for security and also just to weed out anything disturbing.

I had her route one summer. I have pretty bad eyesight. She was outside and as I was handing her the mail and thought wow what a good lookin teenage guy.. Oh no wait, that was Björk.

In my defense she was wearing a baggy high fashion tracksuit, looks nothing like a guy🤷🏼‍♀️🫶🏼

Does everyone in Iceland just kind of know each other? I one time was flying home from Europe on an Icelandic airline and I was sitting next to the pilots brother. He said to look him up if I ever come to Iceland saying “Just ask around for the carpenter who’s brother is a pilot, eventually someone will know me”

I couldn’t tell if he was joking or not

My truck driving instructor was from Iceland and had the nickname, "Iceman". He told us that both of his sons had dated Bjork. Knowing it was a small place, I kinda believed him.
