Returning to Roots in Reykjavik, Iceland (30x2)

Air date: Dec 02, 2011

A dream job is taking Iceland native Thor Jonsson back to his roots in Reykjavik - He's got his wife Tara and son Magnus along for the homecoming. Thor's excited to rediscover the country he left as a child and share the experience with his family; Tara's excited to discover a new place and a new culture, but has some concerns about breaking into Icelandic society. The house hunt is cause for concern too - although a recent recession has created a buyer's market, finding the right property isn't easy. Real estate agent Jon Valdimarsson will lead the search and try to find some common ground on a $250,000 budget. Thor seems set on making a sound investment; Tara wants family-friendly and close to the city. Will these two compromise to ensure a happy homecoming? Find out when House Hunters lands in Reykjavik, Iceland.
