Mary Johnson shares photo from Iceland trip

Mary Johnson shares news from her Van and Marinius Swets Travel Award:

I have returned from my trip in time for the start of classes and want to thank you so much for my Van and Marinius Swets Travel Award!

With it, I was able to add an excursion where I was able to ride an Icelandic horse outside of Reykjavik, Iceland.  These horses are direct descendants of the horses the Vikings brought to Iceland 1,000 years ago, and really special.  Here I am, on a very windy day, riding through the lava fields!

Many thanks for a very special addition to an already great trip!
