And I’ve completed my first „adventure“…

…namely surviving the very „lively“ ferry trip from Danmark to the Faroer islands! 49 hours of being see-sick more or less the whole time. Cannot remember if I was drinking „Schnaps“ at the time back in January when I created the crazy idea taking the ferry – but, hey I survived.

The plan was to rest the first day here in Tórshavn, the capital of the Faroer islands, but I seemed being still high from all my travel drugs I was taking… 😉

…so, I did go for a short look and walk around Tórshavn today.

First I had a look around the Fort Skansin, a historic site dating back to the sixteenth century, and then I enjoyed all the cute little turf houses around Tinganes, the old part of the town, which is still made up of small wooden houses covered with turf roofs. The oldest house dates back 500 years. Ting means parliament and the main ting for the islands was convoked in Tórshavn in 825, in Tinganes.

    The sea-sickness sounds awful, but it’s great you got there safely. The photos look beautiful! I was going to message you… just to make sure you know about the new 5 day quarantine when arriving in Iceland. It may impact your schedule a bit! More here: https://www.covid.is/de
