This week, we talk to Gurid Hojgaard about tourism in the Faroe Islands. Hojgaard is the head of Visit Faroe Islands, which is preparing to launch a new branding campaign promoting the Faroes as a tourist destination. In advance of that launch, they've released this spectacular video, which is well worth the three minutes it takes to watch.
We talk to Hojgaard about the past and future of tourism in the Faroes, and how to market a destination as "unspoiled" without spoiling it in the process.
Then we'll visit one of the most isolated villages on the island of Streymoy.
