I was in Iceland in the summer of 2010, and during our quest to find a recommended burger joint, my mom and I happened to stumble upon the house where Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev meet at the Summit Meeting, which helped lead to the end of the Cold War. It was a neat little piece of history tucked away rather incognito in Reykjavik; as a history buff, this was too cool to pass up.
Travel perspective, tales, and advice 
FYI, I think Gorbachev’s first name was Mikhail, not Nikita. That was the muncken, Kruschev, or however you spell that commie bastard’s name. But, that is a pretty cool encounter you had. Like visiting the Berlin Wall kind of a deal. Nifty. Thanks for including us on your quixotic journeys. I didn’t know about that.
Whoops, thanks for the heads up. I’ll fix it. And yeah, it was pretty nifty to have seen the place where history took place. Honestly, I wasn’t really expecting anything like that to happen on the trip, but it definitely was awesome.
That’s really cool. I was hoping I’d find that house when I was in Reykjavík but I didn’t really go out of my way to look for it. Maybe next time, haha.
To be fair, it was kind of out of the way in Reykjavik. Like, in the business district of the city; the only reason we found it was because it was by the burger joint and we were walking past it haha.
