The weather in the Faroe Islands can be tricky, and we had a mix of beautiful sunshine, as well as some light sprinkles. Our trip was cut short because of travel delays, but we made the most of it and drove around to at least 6 different islands. The city of Torshavn was unsuspectingly charming.

We had originally planned to spend more time in Greenland, but with the weather and plane instrument dependencies, our trip was cut short almost 2 days. Either way, we cranked out all the activities one could fit in an entire day, including paddle boarding past ice bergs, walking through the local towns and seeing the Inuit way of life, rib boat rides through pack ice, and having a BBQ on the shores of an abandoned coal mine.

We've taken a few trips to Iceland now and have done a good amount of mostly the central and south coast areas. It's funny that you don't get sick of seeing new and beautiful waterfalls over and over again - they just never get old. The weather is tempermental and you have to be prepared for both sunshine and torrential downpour all in one day. We'll be back to Iceland again, someday soon!

Baku is a bustling modern city that amazed us in many ways. The food was incredible, the modern buildings were uniquely designed with purpose, and Old Town Baku was as charming and preserved as one could hope. The 4-storey winding slide in the Deniz Mall made us feel like kids again.

Kuwait was incredibly hot, over 100 degrees every day we were there. We did manage to get a tour around the city and saw many incredible places that the Kuwaitis have built over the years. The Peace Palace was one of the most incredible museums we've been to and we learned so much there in just the short amount of time that we were there. Everybody we met or interacted with was so kind and graceful.

Cyprus was such a relaxing time! The Four Seasons hotel was a wonder, the spa was absolutely serene, it was a bit warm outside, but we did manage to get a nice long walk along the boardwalk on the beach. The Cypriot food and culture are something to appreciate and we left feeling the warm hospitality of the locals.
