The old but stylish Torshavn or 'Thor's Harbor' in Danish, is the capital city of the Faroe Islands, a possession of Denmark despite being some 600 miles from the Danish mainland. The islands are usually best known for a rugged, rocky, but green-tinged allure that is perfectly in fitting with their Scandinavian roots. Moreover, rocky tors jutting up to the sky, grass-covered hills and turf-roofed houses, epic waterfalls cascading over cliffs, hidden grottoes and inlets — all these are on the menu if you head to the Faroe Islands. Even among the most rugged trekkers who revel in all that the Faroese great outdoors has to offer, the charms of Torshavn are very well known. There is also plentiful shopping, cafes, bars, and restaurants featuring the freshest of seafood and traditional dishes.

Killarney (Cill Airne in Irish) is the gateway to the Ring of Kerry and is one of best places in Ireland to explore the outdoors. The attractive town is outshone by the Killarney National Park and the surrounding countryside with its mountains, lakes, woods and overall beauty. Killarney town has charming architecture and style reminiscent of the late nineteenth century and offers the fine restaurants, gift shops and traditional pubs. About 6 miles west is the Gap of Dunloe with steep sides and deep glacial lakes, it offers spectacular scenery. The Ring of Kerry meanders around the Iveragh Peninsula with sensational views, especially at Caherdanial where you will find Ireland's only beach pub. At regular intervals you will come across restaurants, cafes and gift shops majoring in Irish crafts. Another landmark is the Ross Castle, a square medieval tower which was built by the O'Donoghues in the 15th century, situated on the shores of Lough Lein.
