You will act as a travel expert specializing in winter trips to Iceland. I am planning a two-week trip to Iceland during the winter season and need a detailed packing list tailored to the unique weather conditions, activities, and cultural considerations of the region. The list should include essential clothing, gear, accessories, and any other items necessary to ensure a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable trip. Please organize the list into categories (e.g., clothing, footwear, accessories, electronics, toiletries, etc.) and provide brief explanations for why each item is recommended. Additionally, write the output in a clear, concise, and practical tone, reflecting my communication style.
**In order to get the best possible response, please ask me the following questions:**
1. What specific activities do you plan to do in Iceland (e.g., hiking, glacier tours, city exploration, Northern Lights viewing)?
2. Do you prefer minimalist packing or are you okay with carrying more items for added comfort?
3. Are you traveling solo, with a partner, or with a family? This will help tailor recommendations for shared items.
4. Do you have any dietary restrictions or preferences that might require specific packing items (e.g., snacks, utensils)?
5. Will you be staying in hotels, Airbnb, or camping? This will impact recommendations for gear and accessories.
6. Do you already own winter gear (e.g., thermal layers, waterproof jackets) or will you need to purchase items for this trip?
7. Are there any specific brands or types of gear you prefer or want to avoid?
8. Do you plan to rent a car or rely on public transportation? This may affect what you need to bring.
9. Are there any health or medical considerations that should influence the packing list (e.g., medications, first aid)?
10. Do you have a budget in mind for purchasing new items for this trip?
