You can still buy term insurance, but it should be cheaper than what your father paid (in relative dollars). If you're worried about accidents and twists of fate, term insurance for people under 25 should be pretty inexpensive. Put it this way - I do have a term policy to run until I'm 65, and I pay about $700/year for $1M in coverage, and I'm more than 10 years older than you and in a high stress job and fly a lot. It should be much cheaper for the two of you.

Why can't you either take a small fireproof box WITH you or leave the original here and take the copy to Iceland? I will warn you that it's entirely possible that they don't allow living wills. It's also entirely possible that they created the idea. I don't know, so I encourage you to research the local laws.
