VI Oy (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Vi oy is the northern-most island in the Faroe Islands, located east of Bor oy to which it is linked via a causeway. The name means wood island, despite the fact that no trees grow on the island: the name relates to the driftwood that floats in from Siberia and North America. The island has two settlements: Hvannasund on the south-west coast and Vi arei i on the north-west coast, the northernmost settlement in the Faroes. A road along the west coast of the island connects the two. The island is connected by a road causeway to Nor depil on Bor oy and a bus service from Klaksv k runs across the causeway to the island.
