YES! Today I am in the Faroe Islands, and I am taking on two of their biggest challenges: 1. summitting their tallest mountain, and 2. attempting to pronounce it. (And spoiler alert, at least one of those is going to end in failure.) BIG THANK YOU TO: Elsa Maria and Get Around Faroe Islands - https://getaround.fo/ (If you'd like to thank her on my behalf, you could book a tour with her!) POTENTIALLY USEFUL LINKS: Bus route to Gjógv: https://www.ssl.fo/en/timetable/bus/201-oyrarbakki-gjogv (Connects to the Tórshavn-Klaksvík bus in Oyrarbakki. Please note: outside of summer season, the route only operates ON REQUEST - you need to call and request the bus at least 2h beforehand. They speak English, helpfully.)
