Koltur ist die zweitkleinste der 18 Färöer-Inseln und hat nur eine Fläche von etwa 2,3 km². Mit nur einer einzigen Person, die dort lebt ist die Insel heute nahezu unbewohnt. Die alten, verlassenen Bauernhäuser stammen aus dem 16. Jhd und sind bedeutende kulturhistorische Zeugnisse.

The bus stop at Gerðisbreyt in #Velbastaður.

One can send their post or enjoy the view over #Koltur while waiting for a bus no 5 or Saturday-only route 7 (connecting #Kirkjubøur with #Kollafjørður). And they're free, thanks to the local community council.

OK #Koltur. Until next time.
Good to be back on #koltur. Assisting in fieldwork even if I'm on parental leave.

A bit off the beaten track for today's photo, the island of Koltur in the Faroe Islands.

This is the view from near Miðvágur on Vágar. Many of the islands seem to have their own security blanket clouds and Koltur's is a study in aerodynamics.
