The day before Christmas can be a busy one. Just take a glance inside any mall, it’s likely to crowded with last-minute holiday shoppers. But for our Geo Quiz today, we were looking for a place where there are no crowds. It’s a cluster of islands in the North Atlantic about halfway between Iceland and Norway.
So which place are we talking about?

The answer to today’s Geo Quiz is the Faroe Islands locatedf in the North Atlantic about halfway between Iceland and Norway. It’s a place where there are no crowds, no shopping malls, but plenty of Christmas spirit. Anchor Marco Werman speaks with a couple of islanders (Janus úr Dímun and Jóhan on the the Faroe island of Stóra Dímun.)
