Join in a chain dance accompanied by traditional kvæði music or hone your knitting skills in the friendly Faroe Islands. This self-driving tour of the rugged and famously windy islands (18 in all) offers two days in the small, yet cosmopolitan capital, where brightly painted structures huddle to form cozy streets stocked with local arts. Spend another two nights in the tiny village of Gjógv, whose central location allows for mountain climbing or coast combing.
