Mykinesbygd - the village

A whopping 10 permanent inhabitants, that's how big this village is!

But it is quite cute...

My job and my home

The most common question I get is: Why the Faroe islands? Well to clear this up I got a quite sudden job offer from NordJobb, and having no other set arrangements for the summer I thought it could be an interesting experience. So why not?

New adventure, new blog (kind of)

Previous experience has taught me that blogging is a nice and effective way of keeping friends and family up to date about your adventures, thus as promised I am revitalizing a blog.

Ohwell...

Ignore the old posts and enjoy some new ones. This time not from my adventures in South Korea, but now on the Faroe islands.
