Reasons to visit the Faroe islands

[shewhomust]

I wouldn't normally think of a road tunnel as a must-see attraction. At best it's something that makes the journey easier - and if I'm on holiday, I'm more likely to complain that it also makes the journey less interesting. But I might make an exception in this case.

Bonus link: more about the art works, from the tunnel's website.

Now I need to make time to visit the Faroes! I've wanted to go for many years, but I keep putting it off. I'm a bit sorry the ferry's no longer in service, though the tunnel is amazing with that art!

My sentiments exactly!

That is a wonderful-looking road tunnel.

(I love that the story of the seal woman comes from someone who told it as a family story in 1969.)

The folk process is alive and well ...

Oh wow. That is so nifty!

[shewhomust]

In so many ways ...

I read more about the artworks, and it turned into a lot of stories about very ornery Faroese.

You say that like it's a bad thing ...
