About the host
Hosted by Torgerd Dam
I am from The Faroe Island. I have been a host for a few years now and I find it exciting to rent out to different people. likewise, I myself love to travel around the world and experience the world in a more present way than one does with the more traditional travels.
When renting this cottage I am always available in case there is anything my guests need to know more about.
