message de Nicole Zohdi

Vigur Island, nestled in Iceland's remote Westfjords just south of the Arctic Circle, is a slice of northern perfection. This tiny island is home to a unique tradition of eiderdown farming, where soft under-feathers shed by Common Eider ducks are collected by hand and used in luxurious products like duvets and jackets. With only one family living on the island year-round, Vigur is a cherished sanctuary for Arctic birdlife, seals, and even whales that visit the fjord.
