Outstanding!!!!! The boat trip was amazing and the sheep are adorable. Looking forward to part 2. Thank you for sharing.
Wow. Just the place to let man know how unimportant he is. . Really beautiful.
Im important🦸🏼♂️
Thank you for sharing your amazing journey! What a beautiful corner of the world!
I was in the Faroe Island three weeks ago. It was fantastic.
Why Europe looks beautiful ,it is due to their beautiful thoight.❤🎉
You people really have a wonderful eye for these sort of films. I look forward to part 2 as soon as possible.
You have really gone to the end of the world for us. This is a fabulous video and showed me all the things I would wish to do if visiting the Faroe Islands. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! A stunning place and so peaceful.
I am really interested in seeing more remote areas lately so this was perfect! I get a warm feeling from many of these ‘barren’ landscapes
Thank you for sharing this beautiful place.
Beautiful scenery, love seeing inside the caves , absolutely beautiful , thankyou
Oh the caves! so amazing, we were very lucky that the weather allowed it that day. Does not always happen.
Absolutely breathtaking! Now I really want to go 🤩
Hope you make it there!
Faroe Islands is a best country for living.
So excited to watch this! Thank you! ( :
Video chia sẻ của bạn rất ý nghĩa, mình rất thích, cảm ơn chúc bạn sức khỏe và hạnh phúc.
Bewitching Islands full of beauty 😍 wonderment & Pleasant views 👌😊 while your video is perfectly professional , must appreciate your efforts in editing & exhibiting it.. coastal area views are just breathtaking, caves & birds on it 😀just amazing.. thanks for the boat ride for I would definitely never go for such a adventure as I get aqua phobia seeing large scale of water 💧but absolutely enjoyed watching it.. the mountain peak views are stunning ❤ .. I can imagine how wonderful it is to walk & travel on those beautiful grounds while i could so much seeing on video.. thanks for sharing 👍😊 with warm wishes ❤
I am not a fan of going on small boats like that but after we got going, and the stunning views engrossed us, you kind of forget it! The time just flew by. Quite an experience.
Thank you ⚘👍🥰🎩
Welcome 😊
I always look forward to your videos. Beautifully photographed, interestingly and informatively narrated, and a relaxing break from a crazy world.
Many thanks!
You had me Googling the Danish krone-to-US dollar equivalence: One Danish krone = $.15 here in the US, so it says. Good to know! Gorgeous video and stellar documentation as usual. Thank you for "doing your thing." --from the Midwest, US.
Wow, what a trip!!!
Thank you so much so beautiful and tranquil, love it !!!! 😘😘🤗🤗
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Thank you very much for sharing incredible video
Wow! Didn’t really know much about these islands. Thanks for the great video. Looking forward to seeing more! Is there any language barrier that you had to deal with? Is there any sort of internet service? And, how was it driving on the right side? 😂What sort of beer did you have at the beginning of the video? That place looked very interesting! 🍺
Hi Scott, we had no issues with the language, apart from pronouncing places! The locals are very friendly and speak good English. There is a perfect fast internet service throughout the islands and a phone data service so no issues. We drive on the other side of the road often and with no traffic it was easy and relaxed. Not sure what the craft beer was, some sort of Blonde. Not a fan of darker beers. Do you think this might be on your list of places to visit?
@@MemorySeekers thanks! This place may end up on our short list. Can’t wait to see the rest of your videos about these islands.
I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video!🙏🙏Both of you are the best travellers and allowing me to see so beautiful and lovely Faroe Islands: the villages, the houses, the rocks, the museum, the old ruines of cathedra!!!👍👍👏👏 Loved all them!!!!Neusa Helena🙋🏻♀️💞🇧🇷 I' just waiting for the next videos!!!
Can't wait for part 2... Bucket List is getting longer & longer....
Wow!!! Just wow. Such rugged beauty steeped in history. Thank you for showing us.
What a place! Can't wait for part 2. Thank you for taking us along.
The tunnels are mind blowing! I’ve never heard of these islands yet they are so historic. I bet that boat ride was chilly 🥶👍👍
With all the thermal gear on the only thing cold was our hands as we had to hold the camera and be able to press the buttons! Otherwise we were quite toasty!
I was thinking the Sam thing about the boat ride! But worth it I’m sure!
@@riandraegon556 absolutely 👍
Haya. WOW, WOW & WOW, stunning. That boat trip look incredible, especially going through the caves 😀Something magical about the more remote parts of the Faroe Islands 😀Thanku so much for sharing.
Hello, I just want to thank you for your videos about Faroe Islands, they are very informative and helpful and they helped my husband and I plan our visit at the end of September. We had a fantastic time and the information you provide helped us organise our stay and visit different areas without any stress or waste of time.
Thank youuuuu 😊
Thank you for the comment, so glad they have been useful for you. Lovely to know 😊
What a stunning group of islands that we seldom get the pleasure of seeing . You guys did yourselves proud! The scenery, the villages and those mountains were so different to were eye catching. Thank you so much.
The Faroe Islanda r breathtakingly stunning! And that doesn’t even seem to describe it enough! Every single walk, & turn was more stunning beauty for my eyes! I truly loved seeing how pristine the land was because of the lack of tons of ppl changing it to fit their needs & desires! It seemed unthinkable when u stated they didn’t even get electricity until the 1970’s but I think it’s all part of what has maintained its charm. The sheep were numerous & lambs just adorable 🥰! The boat y’all went on was by far my favorite! I think I spotted a few Guillemot (the ones w/ the black head). I absolutely cannot wait to see Part 2! I truly appreciate u both sharing ur journeys w/ us. They mean the world to m. I’m disabled & travel is too difficult so I “travel” vicariously through y’all. Thank u from the bottom of my heart. Take care & much love to u both. 😉🥰
As glad we can take you along virtually. 😊The boat trip was probably our favourite part of that region. Never done anything like it before and was just blown away by what we saw. Yes I think they were Guillemots.
Sheep grazing on the roof must be quite unique! Looking forward to your next program. Envy your traveling, but at least we can all share in your vistas. Thank you both so much !
Yes I have not seen it elsewhere but I guess if the roof has grass they will certainly try and get to it!
Faroe Island is absolutely wonderful
Absolutely amazing! My wife and I have only seen the Faroes in videos by landscape photographers and those almost always in winter. We had no idea that these islands were as populated as you show and the tunnels were jaw-dropping. That zodiac ride looked amazing, too. Thank you so much.
So glad you enjoyed the tour and it gave you a different perspective on the islands. I have to say I was not sure what you meant by zodiac ride? I have not heard that before.
@@MemorySeekers The craft on which you zipped around the island looked to me like that type of boat.
This video is marvelous! Love the pacing. Were we traveling to the Faroe Islands, we would watch it over and over - it has so much content. Zodiac is the world leader in fast, inflatable boats. The larger ones, much used by militaries, are rigid inflatable boats, or RIBs.
Ah I see!
Thank you learnt something new! I thought RIB62 was just a company name but it’s the type of boat as well! 😀
You guys have done it again - another stunning video of a lesser-known and fascinating location, with expert videography and commentary. Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Thank you. Such stark beauty with endless quiet and peace.
Hi Scott! No issues at all, the locals are very friendly and speak good English. There is a full fast internet service all over the islands, and a phone data service so no issues at all. Oh we drive on the other side all the time and with no traffic it was just wonderful and relaxed. I am not sure what beer it was some sort of Blonde, not a fan of darker beers. Do you think it might be a place you would visit?
SUCH A ADVENTUROUS AND AMAZING VLOG! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING AND WALKING ALONG WITH YOUR VIDEO OF THIS ISLAND. 📸👀👌👍🏻🎆💥🌚👋🏻
Дякую вам за відео.
Неймовірний край. Гори, окрунли піраміди, наче хтось величезний виточив їх із каменю. 😍😍😍😍з нетерпінням чекатиму продовження
OMG!!! What a Magical Place & So Beautifully Filmed. Thank You!!!
💚
(Waiting for Next Episode)
A very different land. Some of the landscapes look other worldly. Grass growing on house roofs? How is that done? 😮 The land is so rugged. Hard to imagine what could have been grown on it. What a challenge. The resilience of the people there must be admired.
This was Magnificent and Magical…..Thank You
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an amazing place, like time has forgotten. I can hear and see Vikings . Stunning 🐨🥰
Thank you boys for taking me with you on your wonderful journey! I always love watching your interesting videos. You are simply the best! Your are real masters of catching the mood of a landscape. Best regards from Germany
So kind thank you!
extraordinary scenery , thanks
Beautiful footage, thanks for sharing 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks for watching
Thank you for sharing 💖
No problem 😊
Islands located closer to UK territory than to Denmark. a unique place out of this world, breathtaking scenery, and villages where time has stood still. Everything preserved according to nature, the only jarring note being the fish farming that impacts on the purity of the sea 🤔. I look forward to the continuation of the trip. 🥰
It's incredible what Memory Seekers has shown to us. Your production is more magnific than a movie in theaters, it's breathtaking. Amazing views of a land unknown by me. Its to watch in big screen. 🤩👏👏👏👏
Wow, I learnt something today. I wouldn't have thought to ever explore there. Just amazing. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your travel videos just get better and better....thank you ...
Loved the Faroe Islands series 🎉❤
Ahh thank you ☺️
I have read quite a bit about the wild rise of the Faroe Islands when America & Europe drifted apart, so it is fantastic to see the archipelago as I myself live in a flat country, Denmark, so I look forward to more from you.
WOW! Another and very special destination for you both. The scenery alone is magnificent and wild, with it’s remoteness making it a memorable video. Glad you had good weather to go into the caves. Thank you, I really enjoyed the video and look forward to part 2.
Yes it was a special place to visit. Very different to other places. Loved how quiet and peaceful it was. Less people around and easy to drive, unlike here in the UK! ☺
AMAZING
Absolutely gobsmackedly beautiful place!!! I have seen photos of this particular place, the Faroe Islands, but this video really showed the full stunning and spectacular beauty of this place!!! This video went beyond my modest expectations in so many ways. Again I say gobsmackedly amazing place!!! Thank you so much for your excellent work yet again 👏 👍 😀 🙌 😊
It did the same for us, much more amazing than we could have imagined. ☺
🇫🇴🏴❤️
Wow! Fabulous video, I can't wait for the next!
Thank you!
That was amazing what a place to visit thank you for your eccellent information and filming
Glad you enjoyed it
👍🏻💐🥰🌻⚘
Perfect narrating. Incredible scenery! Wow!
Many thanks!
Wow! What a mystical looking place. Looking forward to this series. ❤ You do a great job with all your videos!
Thank you so much! ☺
Nicely constructed doco.Well done
Thank you kindly
That was amazing, thanks so much for sharing this adventure with us. There is certainly a wild rugged beauty about the archipelago. It must have been a bleak & hostile place to live for the Vikings, they'd have been at the mercy of the elements for sure, they've gained even more respect from me today 😊.
I've often wondered what the islands were like as my late uncle visited there during WW2 when he was in the Royal Navy. We still have a baby's rattle that he bought for my older brother whilst he was there, it's stood the test of time & six children in our family!
I can't get over the under water roundabout & tunnels, what an amazing bit of engineering, it can't have been easy to build with the tides coming & going.
Can't wait to see the next video, thanks again guys 💗
Really neat video, thankyou for showing it :).
Glad you enjoyed it!
Certainly a wild looking place. No wonder the Vikings preferred to spend their hols in Britain and France! 😉
Sound quality a bit lower than normal there? Or is my hearing really going to the dogs! 🤔
It was very windy a lot of the time so had to keep the natural sounds lower due to the buffeting it created. Even with a mic wind protector it didn’t stop the noise.
Oh my !! What a place! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Wow! you captured the beauty of the place perfectly. nice video.
Thank you very much!
Excellent video! The Faroe Islands are on my bucket list! Subbed.
THIS is active travel, I guess. The scenery is fine. The chance to experience relative solitude would appeal to many.
Very, very beautiful!!!❤
Fellow You Tuber ,Steve Marsh, uploaded a similar video a couple of days ago.They're both well done.
I watched to see where my salmon comes from.🇺🇸 Nice!
STUPENDO ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for including approximate costs.
Amazing, love you guys
Another awesome video guys,well done.
Thank you that was really lovely my type of place so quiet everywhere .
Wonderful video !
Thank you sir.i will visit Faroe island soon probably.
Like my father said about Scotland, he travelled there 10 days and never saw the top of a mountain, always were in the clouds.
Spectacular place and your video showcases it perfectly. Thank you!
pretty place
Beautiful
This is so fascinating! Beautiful filming! Underwater roundabout! Yikes. These islands seem like they are caught in time, so bleak, yet stunning. That boat ride looks so exhilarating! And the geological history of the islands is right there for everyone to see. Thank you for taking us on this surprising and wonderful adventure!
Spectacular!
Amazing video. Looking forward to visit the island. Thanks for sharing.
Such a beautiful place. Thank you for the video.
Our pleasure!
Wow beautiful place !.... thanks
Fantastic filming. Well done. It was a pleasure to see these beautiful islands in all their glory. X
Many thanks! 😊
What a fantastic trip! Thank you so much for your vlog!!!
Our pleasure!
If you love watching the same landscape repeating itself, come over to Australia. It pisses down here as well but isn't so miserably cold 🙂
love it, but so strange with no trees
Very interesting ❤
My travel wish list is growing as I watch your superb videos!! Never thought of this place before, but now I definitely want to go!! ❤👍
How beautiful, and wonderfully presented, as always!
Thank you so much 😀
