  • If you’re thinking of visiting the Faroe Islands, then I hope this film gives you an insight into what to expect. In this jam packed 4 day vlog, we have many adventures, which include a ferry ride to see the puffins, a day of exploring valleys and waterfalls, and many incredible hikes including the most spectacular which was Kalsoy Island. The location of the final scenes in James Bond ‘No time to die’.

    I don't live there anymore (I live in Denmark), but it's always enjoyable watching foreigners experiencing the islands. It makes me appreciate my old life more.
    When you live there, it's just normal and "boring" everyday life, and we often forget to appreciate how special the islands are. 🙃

    • @WestGoesEast
      @WestGoesEast  Před rokem +5

      We certainly appreciated the Faroes and it's one of my favourite places I've ever been. The islands are very special and you were lucky to live there.... Even if the weather is temperamental! ☺️

    I visited back in 1987 when I was in the RAF. We spent 4 weeks working at the Danish radar site on top of a mountain at Mjørkadalur. It was a busy 4 weeks but the Danish servicemen managed to take us on tours every weekend. It is such a beautiful place. I believe the radar site closed down many years ago.

      I have travelled a lot over the years and can safely say that the Faroe Islands are in my top 3 places anywhere.

    I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times.
    78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.
    81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times.
    88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders.
    92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come;
    and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified.
    99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations."
    102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75

    I've priced flights from Newcastle to Copehagen then Vagar.
    Wish there was a direct flight from Newcastle. Was hoping end of March early April 2023

    • @WestGoesEast
      @WestGoesEast  Před rokem +2

      You're welcome. We stayed at Gjaargardur Guesthouse in Gjogv. The prices vary depending on which room you want... More pricey with better views. I highly recommend the place its in. One of the prettiest towns we visited and nice hikes near by. Evening meals are expensive there but make your money back by eating all the salmon at breakfast!
      Our hire car company we used was rentyourcar.fo no problems and helpful.... Cost us £438 for 5 days but bare in mind tunnel costs on top.
      We flew with sas who are cheaper I think but they don't have the technology to land their planes in thick mist but Atlantic airways do... Bare that mind.
      Unfortunately you can't fly direct from the UK.
      Have a great time!

      We only filled up the tank once. The islands are quite small so you don't need that much. We didn't ever pay for parking... Im not sure they charge anywhere there tbh. I might be wrong in the bigger towns.

    Thanks for the video, I have been there but for a music festival in Gota. Which was a bit boozy, however I will go back and travel round far more, as using a car will get me to some of the most stunnng scenery anywhere in the world. Going to check your Svalbard video, went there as well, but the boat trip to Pryamiden got cancelled. Anyway, have one question, what is the second piece of music you used in the video arond the 20 minute mark? Also have you been to Greenland yet? Haven't checked all your videos but didn't see that destination on your landing page.
