Where do you plan to travel to in 2025?
“We talked about the Faroe Islands this summer, my husband and our five children. It is of course for nature, but I also feel that in my own education I need to see the Faroe Islands, which we in Denmark have a close relationship with and are attached to. I have been to Greenland several times and would also like to experience Iceland. I want to see those countries so I can understand our own culture and identity. We would like to sail to the Faroe Islands. It sounds like a good form of travel. We can bring the car and get our own cabins. We have flown on holiday before, but we try to avoid air travel as much as possible and find alternatives. It is about the climate and climate conscience, and we want to show our children that there are other ways to travel than by plane, and that it is natural to choose an alternative. And then I have planned a geek trip to Berlin with a friend. I’m very interested in the Cold War, the fall of the Wall and reunification, and I read a lot about it and listen to a lot of podcasts. We’ll take the train down there’.
