The inspiration to learn comes from the weirdest of sources. I was never really interested in geology before I started enjoying Iceland from above. Then, many ears back, I’m flying over the Vestmann islands, south of Iceland, with a geologist from Namibia and he turned to me and said: “You can’t even begin to fathom how new this lava is. I’m used to working with 14 billion year old rock, you see.” Little did he know the influence of our little discussion. After that, I started loving to learn about the ground I walk and fly over. And it’s still fun!
