UNPREDICTABLE Atlantic Storms, Life-Changing Isle of Tiree, Escape the Rat in Hebrides, Scotland.
Four Seasons in One Day - Snow, Blue sky, Rain, 40ft waves. All in one day on Tiree, the tiny remote Scottish island part of Scoltland's Inner Hebrides. Slow living was never so fast changing.

Moving to a tiny and remote Scottish island - a dot in the Atlantic Ocean 3 hours off the west coast of Scotland - made us look at the world through new eyes. We learnt that we didn’t need all that much to be happy. So, we set out to make the most of what we have on our new Inner Hebrides island home.
Tiree is a tiny island, part of Scotlands Inner Hebrides. It's the most westerly island of the Inner Hebrides. Nothing between our new island home and the east coast of America - except the Atlantic Ocean
We'll show you how we made the life-changing move, how we actively designed our new life, bought a plot of land, designed a new house, started a new business, saved orphaned lambs and now have a new flock as well a much more.
Here's to doing good, feeling good and moving towards something amazing on the Isle of Tiree - One step at a time.

It is a simpler life with an easy way to disconnect from the chaotic world we live in. Totally going to buy a woolie hat for this winter coming, although I feel a hat is a requirement year round on that island. lol

I have sought out and lived in wide open lonely places. One thing I learned, before the internet was invented, was that one has to be able to spend quality time, enjoyable time alone. And I don't mean with a Walkman on listening to a single cassette tape over and over, but that used to help. I mean alone like a hermit, no internet, no phone no one to talk to. Weeks would go by like that and it was educational, but I'm not sure it's even possible to find now. Too many connections to the rest of the world.🥰

Hi blackbird, it's still possible no problem at all ...in Australia! Three hours north of my city you have about a million square kilometres where there's only sand dunes, spinifex, mulga trees, emus and a few cattle can be seen. More camels show up here than anything else! (Escapees from Afghan cameleers that predated the transcontental trainlines) Most people just drive through due north or south stopping only for petrol every three or four hundred kilometres. Neither looking left or right. Robyn Davidson wrote about this country, it hasn't changed its character much in forty years.

Okay - so! How do these work: Electricity, Internet, drinking water, mobile communications (if not via your Internet solution) - & heating.

We have all of the usual utilities on the Island and the internet seems to be faster than the mainland. We also have the most amazing health services I've ever experienced. From my experiences I've always been able to see a doctor on the island on the same day as I call them sometimes within the hour. I've also had a minor operation on my leg on the island the day I spoke with the doctor.

Hi there thanks for watching :-) Sorry the little tag on my hat distracted you, I'll remember that for next time :-) Just in the process of editing the next one :-) I really do appreciate you giving your time to watch our little KZbin channel it means a lot. I hope as time passes we get closer to creating good content. Each time is another step in the learning curve :-)

Hi Louis, thanks for the question. The last 12 months have been crazy (in a good way). New vlogs are on the way I hope you enjoy them as much as we've enjoyed the crazy year they cover. Once we've updated everyone we'll be back to regular vlogs and lives.

its really sad whats happening on your island at the moment. Their policy with regard to tourists is at worse mafia thinking. Good luck to the island who will lose all its tourists I hope. Regards Rob.

Rob what do you mean? It's an amazing place for tourists, the more the merrier. I just wish we had a much bigger ferry. A large number of our friends are people who enjoy and visit the island. Please tell us more.

@@cemeteryguestrob9745 Hi Rob as far as we are aware there are no limits on freedom of movement (Outside of Covid 19 restrictions - that's totally different) and if any website, article or platform says any different they should expressly list any law or bylaw enforcing the restrictions (Outside of Covid 19 restrictions - that's totally different). I don't think they can legally but I'm no expert my understanding is - but as I say I'm no expert: "As long as a person has the "permission of the landowner" you can park-up". Just like anywhere on mainland Scotland - but correct me if I'm wrong. You're more than welcome to park on our land and you'll find there are many more people who feel the same. As far as we are aware in Scotland there is still freedom of movement and free choice (Outside of Covid 19 restrictions - that's totally different). I'm told, some ferry companies may ask for the information but I've also been told there is no obligation to submit the information. As long as you are not breaking a law or committing an offence I would assume as people in a democratic Scotland you're free to make your own choices. But if I'm mistaken I'm happy to be corrected.

@@cemeteryguestrob9745 Sometimes, I get the impression that a few want to be the last person standing on their own tiny island. But, thankfully, they're a minority - sometimes a loud minority. But such is life. You are more than welcome and if you do visit there will be a warm welcome waiting for you :-)
