Описание: Husavik - My Home Town is a song in the Netflix movie: Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. In the lyrics Rachel McAdam's character Sigrit sings of her hometown Husavik. In this walking tour we will explore this town where her heart is.

Húsavík is a town on the shores of Skjálfandi bay in North Iceland with roughly 2300 inhabitants. Here are the highlights of the tour:
00:02 - We start the tour in Húsavík park. It is a relatively young park, started in 1975. Búðará river runs through the park and feeds the duck pond you see to the right. To the left we see a sculpture, called the Dance by Sigrún Guðmundsdóttir.
