=== Streymoy ===
'''Streymoy''' is the most populated island in the Faroes. The capital, Tórshavn, is in the southeast of the island, and one of two cities (as far as I know) where you can get (free) public internet access − just go to the library. I can't remember street names, but because of how small all the towns are, it only takes a little common sense to figure out which road you need to wait by for cars. In generalThere is a roundabout outside of Kollafjørður (which still is in the municipality of Tórshavn, if you're going the way west leads to Vágoy you need to go one wayVágar, and to get anywhere else you take the route which way east leads to KollafjørdurEysturoy and beyond. You're very likely to end up here at some point since there is also a harbour in Kollafjørður, so many company cars go here.
Hitching on Streymoy is generally very easy. Saksun, in the north of the island, is beautiful and probably the hardest place to get to/out of on the island. I waited for about 2 hours and several cars, all of them French and Dutch tourists.
