In Iceland, books are exchanged on Christmas Eve, and you spend the rest of the night reading. People generally take their books to bed along with some chocolate. How cozy and wonderful does that sound?

(More fun facts: Iceland publishes more books per capita than any other country, and new books are typically published only during the Christmas season—the frenzy is called Jólabókaflóð, or the Christmas Book Flood.)

‘I was such a #romantic when I was #young and the #truth is I had a few experiences that were #disappointing, and then I #lost the #idea of #perfect #romanticism. Which might be a #good thing because I believe there is no #perfect #relationship. You know, everything is #work and you #accept the #idea that… That #Prince Charming… maybe has an #issue with, you know, #anxiety, or used to have a #problem with #drugs.’ Julie #Delpy
