Sigurður Hlíðar Jakobsson and Helga Guðrún Sturlaugsdóttir, usually Helga and Siggi, are the farmers and your hosts at Finnsstaðir. Helga is a pharmacy technician by trade, but a host and a horsewoman by passion. Siggi is a mechanic and a jack-of-all-trades. He speaks Icelandic and Horse interchangeably but is more about translating words into action. When you drive down to the farmyard, you will most likely encounter a warm and cheerful hostess. That would be Helga, all prepared to accommodate your wants and needs.
