Sigrún and Friðgeir. Travelogue. Written by Sigrún Pálsdóttir.
In the fall of 1940, two young Icelandic doctors, the couple Friðgeir Ólason and Sigrún Briem, set off for the United States to study medicine. After four years there and in Canada, they returned to Iceland; he with a doctorate from Harvard, she having just completed her bachelor's degree, working in children's hospitals. Sigrún and Friðgeir are truly symbols of the bright hopes of Icelandic medical science when they board the Goðafoss in the fall of 1944, but they are also parents, convinced of their most important role.
