Review of 7泊8日夏のアイスランドの写真ワークショップ

Making the decision to participate in the photography workshop in Iceland was an EXCELLENT idea. I can not explain how much I enjoyed it, and apart from all the excellent service I received from the organizers. Very grateful to our guides for all their attention. They were all very professional and of great help to improve in the field of photography. The place itself is a paradise, but it was much better with the company of a good team and colleagues. Super recommended, so do not think about it too much and book the next one.
