Heimablídni

Because one thing is certain - you will never leave a Faroese home hungry.

A great way of experiencing an authentic Faroese home is to try out ‘Heimablídni’. A local host welcomes you into his home and serves you a lovely home-cooked meal. Sometimes you also have the opportunity of trying out local Faroese delicacies, which isn't always available at restaurants. Here is a list of heimablídni operators in Suðuroy:
