Yesterday afternoon my best friend and I boarded a Lufthansa plane for a nine hour flight to Frankfurt. We had a few hour stay over at the airport before boarding another one hour Lufthansa flight to Copenhagen where we had another few hours stay over before boarding a two or so hour Atlantic Airlines flight to Vagur in the Faroe Islands.
You really, really have to want to go to the Faroes. Which my best friend and I do—this being our third trip.
This trip is the beginning of my retirement travels. I’m still sorting out in my head what it means to not have an endless list of things left undone at my job. Now I’m discovering a new rhythm of priorities and spiritual practices.
Leaving the quotidian is a good way to shake up and reframe.
And what better place than Frankfurt, Copenhagen, and the Faroe Islands?
