The '''Faroe Islands''' are a great place to hitch-hike. There may not be as high The flow of traffic as in other placeschanges during the day and the week, but the must busy time is saturdays around noon and sunday afternoons. Since many times people on the first car Faroe Islands work as sailors and fishermen thus working one month-shifts, you encounter stops'll probably come across many single males driving around in mid-day on working days.  For those times when there aren't any cars, the scenery is so amazing that it's nice to walk. If you decide to walk along the road without hitching for a few hours, be prepared for drivers to stop and offer to give you a ride. Note that it's not recommended to walk through the tunnels, it's even illegal to go by foot through the underwater tunnels.  Nearly everyone speaks English, but you will likely encounter drivers on in the more isolated places who speak only Faroese and Danish. If you speak another Scandinavian language, their Danish is really easy to understand. You really need to leave your worries about safety behind in the Faroes. No one has any ulterior/sinister motive for picking you up − they are just genuinely nice and helpful people. Crime in the Faroes is limited to kids breaking windows, with maybe two or three exceptions in the last 5 years or so.
