    Faroe Islands are spectacularly beautiful and have a level of danger much like the Grand Canyon. Indeed, I enjoyed watching and Faroe Islands is on my bucket list of natural wonders to visit. Thank you for sharing!

    I don't live there anymore (I live in Denmark), but it's always enjoyable watching foreigners experiencing the islands. It makes me appreciate my old life more.
    When you live there, it's just normal and "boring" everyday life, and we often forget to appreciate how special the islands are. 🙃

    • @WestGoesEast
      @WestGoesEast  Год назад +7

      We certainly appreciated the Faroes and it's one of my favourite places I've ever been. The islands are very special and you were lucky to live there.... Even if the weather is temperamental! ☺️

      es un pais rico de primer mundo que se separo de la unon europea pero sigue bajo bandera dinamarquesa para poder explotar indiscriminadamente el oceano sin atenerse a las leyes de la union europea sobre depredacion. tremenda jugada. ademas hay 2 ovejas por cada habitante y es su otra mayor fuente de ingresos junto al turismo. gastaron 140 millones de euros en tuneles submarinos para rutas entre puebluchos de pocs habitantes porque les sobra el dinero.

      In September 2018, I (71) accompanied my friend (80) for a 2 week adventure on the Faroes. We hired a car and, by staying in 3 different airbnb locations, visited almost all the northern islands.
      I have travelled a lot over the years and can safely say that the Faroe Islands are in my top 3 places anywhere.

    I visited back in 1987 when I was in the RAF. We spent 4 weeks working at the Danish radar site on top of a mountain at Mjørkadalur. It was a busy 4 weeks but the Danish servicemen managed to take us on tours every weekend. It is such a beautiful place. I believe the radar site closed down many years ago.

    To all of our Faroese friends…. I’m thinking of visiting a place that has polar day/midnight sun and The Faroe Islands speak to me.
    It seems like late May to late July are the months of Polar Day there in the FI. Does that suggest that right in the middle of this time is the point of the highest sun position in the sky? Is the July 10th time frame still very sunny or is the sun very low at this point?
    In this video… it’s SO GREEN! I read that this was in May… is it still this that green in July?

    how much for the gas? Looks like you have a lot of traveling from the hotel to the scenic spots? Is parking costly near charters to the other islands? Schedules of charters to other island/towns?

      We only filled up the tank once. The islands are quite small so you don't need that much. We didn't ever pay for parking... Im not sure they charge anywhere there tbh. I might be wrong in the bigger towns.

    Thanks for the video, I have been there but for a music festival in Gota. Which was a bit boozy, however I will go back and travel round far more, as using a car will get me to some of the most stunnng scenery anywhere in the world. Going to check your Svalbard video, went there as well, but the boat trip to Pryamiden got cancelled. Anyway, have one question, what is the second piece of music you used in the video arond the 20 minute mark? Also have you been to Greenland yet? Haven't checked all your videos but didn't see that destination on your landing page.

      You're welcome. We stayed at Gjaargardur Guesthouse in Gjogv. The prices vary depending on which room you want... More pricey with better views. I highly recommend the place its in. One of the prettiest towns we visited and nice hikes near by. Evening meals are expensive there but make your money back by eating all the salmon at breakfast!
      Our hire car company we used was rentyourcar.fo no problems and helpful.... Cost us £438 for 5 days but bare in mind tunnel costs on top.
      We flew with sas who are cheaper I think but they don't have the technology to land their planes in thick mist but Atlantic airways do... Bare that mind.
      Unfortunately you can't fly direct from the UK.
