Not many people know how killer Scandinavian countries are. I've never been to Europe, let alone northern Europe, but from what I read, those countries really kick ass. From their forward thinking governments, to their unbelievable beautiful settings and large average incomes. When I say that they have forward thinking governments, this is what I mean:
"The same relaxed attitude toward public safety that we experienced yesterday with road construction carried on to the grand waterfall Gullfoss: the idea seems to be that if you are an idiot, you probably deserve to die, and they’re not going to stand in your way. Which means that you have complete and total access to the waterfall, and can walk right up to its edge:"
This is a quote from Peter Rukavina's blog (http://ruk.ca/article/4987) referring to access to a large waterfall in Iceland. That is EXACTLY how 'safety' of this sort should be treated. In North America, there would be armed guards, three fences, and more than enough shit to ruin the entire experience. Not only do they allow a completely intimate experience at the falls, but they increase their average IQ while at it; beautiful.
