Hi , my wife is Scottish an I am Russian, on my first visit to Scotland I was overwhelmed by the beauty of highlands, and old castles. God bless this lands.

As a Scot living in Scotland I commend you for such a beautiful video, capturing the essence of island life, it’s not for everyone but when it is for you, your heart is content. We live such fast lives, only when we slow down do we have time to wonder why we do rush about. Loved the little history bit, to put it into context too. So happy you enjoyed it.

I can see 100 % why folks would want to leave the madness of real life. At some point i would love to. All the best for actually doing this.

I'm in Canada and my grandparents came from South Uist in 1923. Other relatives came here in the 1880s. I spent six years researching Lady Gordon Cathcart . You are he first person I have ever heard speak about her! You have no idea how special your video is to me. Thank you.

One of those homes you were exploring was the home of my 5th great grandfather.

You are doing in your young years what I only dream of in my fifties. I look forward to watching more of this beautiful scenery.

My Granny (Grandmother) came from the Outer Hebrides, born in 1902. She could only speak Gaelic when she went to school aged 5 years. She was told Gaelic was a backwards language and had it belted out of her, if she ever spoke it. Such a shocking thing to do to a child. Breaks my heart to think what she went through, I have very fond and loving memories of her. Pleased now Gaelic is recognised and appreciated. Thank you for visiting this lovely island.

Thank you for sharing this adventure with us. One request for you to consider: when gathering fungi, please use a knife to cut them from the stem vs. pulling them out of the ground. Leaving the base in the ground helps to maintain the fungis' presence on the site vs. removing it and making it more challenging for future 'shrooms to arise.

I’d leave the U.S. and move there in a heartbeat if I could. Looks like Heaven to me! ❤️

I wasn't expecting those beautiful beaches 😮 I can't wait to meet Scotland! Every time I discover something new about this place and I feel more in love 🧡

It just makes me want to pack up and leave the rat race in 2021!

Think the reason Scotland is so beautiful is partly down to the weather lol it’s that bad it keeps a lot of tourists away hence preserving our beautiful countryside… & for this I thank the weather ❤️🏴

Beautiful video, full of sensory experiences. Many thanks for sharing! I moved from Hampshire to Aberdeenshire in late 2021, and I've not regretted it for a second. One of the things I love is the amazing light, and there's plenty of that in this video from even further north. I'm in love with Scotland's skies.

Thank you for sharing your journey! This was so relaxing to watch! I love how respectful your are of the island, it’s people, and it’s history.
