I haven't booked yet, but I am planning on July 26 - August 12, so I can be there for both Ólavsøka and Summarfestivalurin í Klaskvík (where of course Týr will be playing - :drunky:).

This is awesome, me too!!!!! :congrats: in which island will you be staying?


I'll be staying at Hotel Tórshavn, but we'll bring our car with the boat, so we'll be driving all over :D

You're only 15 years old. Can you drive? :shock:


I'm pretty sure his parents can...

His parents are going to Faroe islands? I wish my parents would have brought me to japan when I was a kid since I really wanted to go there. (Yeah, I was a Nintendo freak in the 80's and I still only play old Nintendo games.)


Haha :lol: Well, they want to come basically because we started getting in contact with my family two years ago. And since I got interested and showed them pictured of the rough and beautiful nature, they got more interested.

Coming to the Fearoes TOO! Yay!

Postby Catharina » 2007-05-01, 16:00

Well, it's really happening! I booked my flight and will be in the Faeroes from July 26th till August 12th! Yay!

SO...what am I gonna do?

- visit friends (and drink!)
- run around Tórshavn at Ólavsøka
- go to the Summarfestivalur (and see Týr!)
- climb the Slætteratindur!
- ride the helicopter and see Stóra Dímun
- see as many heathen/saga places as possible
- and why not: see as many islands as possible!

If you live in the Faeroes or will be in the Faeroes at that time, let me know - I want to meet you!

Just don't drink too much. They are more restrictive than in the rest of the Nordic countries there.

Catharina wrote:- run around Tórshavn at Ólavsøka

In Jämtland, we call it Ólsmæss' [ˈuːʂˌmɛsː]. Note that there is a pilgrim road through my village to Trondheim where Saint Olaf is buried. (Or at least has his major shrine.) In fact, the pilgrim road passed just some 50 m south of our old house.

Sounds both dangerous and expensive. But damn cool!

Catharina wrote:- see as many heathen/saga places as possible

I don't think Faroese islands have many heathen cult locations, probably the least amount in the Scandinavian speaking Nordic countries (even per capita). The ultimate place to see a Scandinavian heathen cult location is Uppsala högar 100 km north of Stockholm in Sweden. There are still several blót festivals there every year. (I write still since they were never stopped, only disguised as being christian for 700 years when you couldn't be non-christian.)
    Image
    Spring blót at Uppsala högar by the "surviving" community of Swedish heathens.
I agree that Faroese islands would be great to visit. 8)

here is a good article on the most important heathen cult site in the world; Temple at Uppsala.

(NB: Uppsala has the oldest Nordic university, and I studied there 1998-2002, 2003-2005.)
But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright Brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

Wow! I see it's a while ago I visited this forum, I've been quite busy, so I havn't spent much time online.

I hope to meet you there, since I've settled in the Islands, and now live in Hvalvík - I will have to go to Denmark in summer, but I still don't know when I'm in the Faroes and when I'm in Denmark. I'll be there at the G!Festival, though, that's for sure :wink: Will probably miss the Summarfestivalur - anyways - I hope to meet you somewhere in the Islands :woohoo:
