Small islands like the Faroes are on the top of my “I’d love to go to them if I had the money” along the lines of St Pierre and Miquelon, the Falklands, and Norfolk Island. The Azores and Madeira are up there too, along with Molokai and Lanai.

I'm a big fan of (mostly temperate) islands. Of these, I've been to the Faroes, St-Pierre, the Azores, and Moloka'i. All are great in their own way. Unique cultures and scenery.

When I lived in Buenos Aires, I missed the trip to the Islas Malvinas, but my (American) friends who went, and whose opinions I generally value, said they were boring.

Oh wow! That’s some solid traveling! I’m a birder, so I’d love to see the penguin colonies on the Falklands. I appreciate how they use the minefields since they’re too light to set off the mines. If you’re not into birds though, I could see how they’d get boring.

Did you go to Kalawao County when you went to Moloka’i?

Ah ok, if you're into birds, that would totally change the prioritization Cool

I did go to Kalawao (particularly as a county collector). Did the mule ride down the cliffs. Wanted to fly, but there was some complication, so I took the same journey back up to topside Moloka'i. Very unique experience, one on which you are limited to a few hours' visit at most.
