Iceland - Times of change

Today, Ulfarvatn, a suburb of Reykjavik is a ghost area. It was meant to become a fashionable inner city residential heaven with up to 4.000 people to build their homes there. Today they are hardly 200 people living in the area in a surrounding that hardly resemble a town. Most homes in fact are unfinished due to the sudden economic collapse of the country. Services such as medical, schooling, transport are non existent. Magnus and his family are among the very few people that managed to move in Ulfarsvatn.
