    On this episode, we travel to London to meet up with Kate Sanderson. She's the Head of Representation of the Faroe Islands to the United Kingdom. It's kind of like an ambassador, but with many more words in the title. We'll talk about representing the Faroes in the UK and the life of a Faroese diplomat.

    Then we head to the center of Torshavn and accidentally participate in a church service.

    Jun 3 2025

    On this episode, we learn the history of a Faroese boat whose name, translated into English is "Northern Lights" but whose Faroese name contains characters this American keyboard doesn't have.

    The creators of this podcast thought the boat was a sailing ship from the late 1800s. Turns out, we couldn't have been farther from the truth. Step onboard as we learn the unexpected history of an iconic Faroese ship.
