For the past several years I have spent part of each year living in the Faroe Islands. In 2005–2006, I lived for 14 months in the small town of Fuglafjørður, my father's home town.

The Faroe Islands are a small island group in the North Atlantic, halfway between Iceland and Norway, north of the British Isles. They are a semi-independent territory of Denmark, with their own language (Faroese), their own flag, and limited self-rule. (More about the Faroe Islands)

It is a small country (with 48,000 people) and remote (there are more sheep than people), but a completely modern, industrialized Scandinavian country. (Yes, they have the Internet!)
