Iceland: Obtaining an Icelandic Driver's License:

I read on europa.eu that a non-EEA driver's license can be exchanged for an Icelandic license by following this procedure: 1. Go to: the Icelandic local District Magistrate, or the local police regardless of your place of residence. 2. Hand in the following documents: a. A photograph (35x45 mm). b. Foreign driving licence. c. A statement concerning your health, or if appropriate a health certificate issued by a doctor. Is it just that simple? No proof of residency? No eye or medical test? I have a US State license but want to exchange it for a license that I can use throughout the EEA so I can buy a car and obtain proper car registration and insurance. Iceland's requirements seem much easier than other countries I have researched.

Germany: Need Advice:

I have no relevant experience in Germany but I can tell you that if you can access Youtube, you will find many US channels to view. Also, Netflix may be available on a subscription basis although its not the US version so selections are more limited. As for Social Security, I fell certain that you can have your benefits deposited by the SSA directly to a German Bank. Just be sure to research whether your benefits might be taxable by Germany
