Advertised as working in the Faroe Islands, Scotland, and the Czech Republic, it didn&#8217;t work at all in the Faroe Islands or Scotland and barely worked&#8211;at super slow speeds and only sometimes&#8211;in the Czech Republic.) I was supposed to be going to a festival in the Faroe Islands. It was canceled. So I had a lot of extra time in the Faroe Islands but no way to know what to do with it. I didn&#8217;t have a guidebook. All I had was Google maps. <\/p>\n<p>I drove to every place I could see on Google maps, but since I didn&#8217;t have internet, I didn&#8217;t know what would be there when I arrived or what to do in these towns. However, the Faroe Islands provided a solution. In every town, there is a really cool map\/town overview sign which I would read before exploring. An example of one of these can be seen in the \u00c1rnafj\u00f8r\u00f0ur sign below.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24238\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/217_1926-RAW-faroe-islands-Arnafjordur-town-map-and-summary-plaque.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24238\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/traveljapanblog.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/217_1926-RAW-faroe-islands-Arnafjordur-town-map-and-summary-plaque.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\"><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-24238\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00c1rnafj\u00f8r\u00f0ur town map<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I didn&#8217;t see another human during the half hour or so that I wandered around the town of \u00c1rnafj\u00f8r\u00f0ur.
