Our Team
Justas Šuscickis
Originally arriving in Ísafjörður for a short-term avalanche barrier project, the Westfjords quickly became home. With a deep passion for the outdoors, mountain life, and ocean sports, the idea behind Quest West was born from exploring remote landscapes and discovering new ways to experience them.
From ski touring in the mountains to surfing and wakeboarding in Arctic waters, Justas built Quest West around the idea of creating authentic adventures connected to nature, freedom, and exploration.
Today, those experiences have evolved into unique journeys designed to share the raw beauty, energy, and spirit of the Westfjords with others.
Founder
Gaëlle
Growing up on Vancouver Island, I developed a lifelong love for the outdoors and a deep appreciation for wild landscapes.
That passion has led me to explore and work in some incredible places, and discovering Iceland's Westfjords has been one of the most rewarding experiences.
I look forward to sharing the region's dramatic scenery, hidden gems, and unique character.

I’m a positive person who always has something in mind that could be done. I enjoy walks in nature, exploring the world, and the Icelandic “þetta reddast” way of living.
On days when I’m not physically active, I enjoy creating things — from painting to cooking or baking, or simply relaxing with a good cup of tea.
