I won't go into too many details about the trip now, but to alleviate the boredom of waiting for the weather to clear up I had some truly inspiring conversations like this one:
Location: Somewhere on the way from the Faeroes to Norway.But I made it in the end, and now I'm in Belgium starting my new job. :)
Passenger (pensive): "My geography isn't very good. What ocean is this we're sailing on?"
Me: "This would be the North-Atlantic."
Passenger: "Ah. And the Mediterranean?"
Me: "Uhm... Well, it's a sea, not an ocean. And it's to the south of here, you know, between southern Europe and Africa, reaches all the way to Turkey and..."
Passenger: "Oh, and the Indian Ocean? That's in Africa, right?"
Me: "... it's close to India. India is in Asia."
