GARY in the Faros Islands





Hello Tim,

I rode the large ferry Nörrona for a 2nd time, from Føroya to Iceland's E fjords, where high winds and icy roads up high have me pinned down in the small town of Seyđisfjörđur for 2 nights in deep wet snow.

Couldn't bear the thought of hanging out with the arrogance of youth, so am in pricey guesthouses alone... I mean I am the only person in the entire two-storey building.

Iceland has a population of 330 000 and last year 1.6 million visited.  I think I will come again in a future winter due to the absence of people - 45 pax on the ferry that has 1482 berths.  And each berth is filled throughout all of summer. 

Føroyar (the Faroe Islands) was spectacular and worthwhile - many under-sea tunnels link the islands I visited.

More on my fb page if you use that.

With regards and good health for 2018,

- Gary
