Lost Place Scalpay
July 27, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
I'm fascinated by lost places and although one can find them in abundance in Harris, there are always some special ones, like this in Scalpay. It was an occupied house in the 60s and you can stillRead more
The Wreck
July 27, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
Not only houses are abandoned in Harris. Cars, bikes, camper vans, bath tubs... You name it. In Harris you never dump anything, you just abandon it somewhere... Decay shapes the scene of Harris. AndRead more
Rodel revisited
July 28, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
I felt that this beautiful church deserves a better light than I captured two days ago. Therefore 5 am the alarm went off and I climbed that hill in early morning light. So much better!!!
As soon as IRead more
TravelerOh, what a magical adventure you are having. I'm loving all your images and stories from the places you visit.
Vegan EV TravellersI'm really enjoying every day. I always think I visited my favourite spot or area and nothing can top it, just to realise the next day I am blessed to see something new at least as lovely.
Goodbye Harris
July 29, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ 🌬 15 °C
Again it's time to say goodbye. On the ferry to Skye now.
A hard goodbye for me, I felt homely and at ease in Harris...
The cloud

Good morning from the country of midges ...
First light
July 30, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
First morning in Skye did not disappoint. Beautiful views of Old Man of Storr from Loch Fada.
When everyone is still sleeping
July 30, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
Portree in summer is not really what you can call an oasis of relaxation... But to capture the serenity of an early Sunday morning is beautiful.
Fairies played builders
July 30, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
Fairyglen is called like this because the small hills look like fairies shaped the landscape. Together with the majestic Castle Ewen as a backdrop you really think this beauty is otherworldly.
Ok. TheRead more
Greetings to Harris
July 30, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C
This is the ferry with which we came yesterday from Harris. The ferry terminal Uig is up North in Skye.
We were lucky that they were sailing since CalMac is not known for being the most reliable.
Charging Disaster
July 30, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C
The charging situation in Skye is a real disaster. And when I say that I mean it!!! In theory they have enough charging points. But a week ago they were all disconnected. On the whole island there areRead more
The unexpected
July 31, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
Forecasted was rain. And rain. And rain.
But hey, we're on Skye, right?!? So we still left the accommodation at 4am and drove to the Quiraing, hoping for the unexpected. And look at the photos howRead more
The Kilt
July 31, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
The Kilt Rock and the Mealt Falls.
The basalt columns undulate, forming a ripple effect that resembles the pleated folds of a traditional Highland kilt, hence the name 'Kilt Rock'.
The Bride
July 31, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
This waterfall, with the wonderful Old Man of Storr as backdrop, is called Bride's Veil.
Mucki's adventures
July 31, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ 🌧 14 °C
If a car could tell stories, our 500e could already tell quite a few. Driving through Trotternish for example.
Early
August 1, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
This is the time you have to get up to be able to enjoy Skye in summer. At least we have 3-4 hours to enjoy before the crowds arrive. Think Waterloo Station. Think Skye in summer...
Where the fairies take a dip
August 1, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
One of the most overcrowded places in Skye: the Fairy Pools.
But arriving there in the dark, being the only person, and seeing the day starting with a moody blue hour, makes it easy to wake up earlyRead more
Cuillins meet the sea
August 1, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
Sligachan is a hub. Yesterday and today. It's where highland clans met up. Where travellers found rest and shelter in a historic inn. Where today the traffic is divided to reach east, north or west ofRead more
The must do shot
August 2, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ 🌬 13 °C
Neist Point is the must do shot when you're in Skye. For sunset you can expect 100 photographers and fight for your spot.
At sunrise I was on my own a bit further down, uphill were three otherRead more
TravelerYou are probably sat on same same spot I used a couple of years ago. I also wanted the cliff to break the horizon. Lovely shots.
Vegan EV TravellersExactly Keith! Also from further left the cliff looks more dramatic and becomes a leading line instead of photographing it flat
Slow but yummy
August 2, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Although the charging situation is more than bad, we are quite lucky. The only charger (22kW slow) within a radius of 30 minutes driving is only 3 mins from our accommodation. And although there areRead more
Direction South
August 3, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
Leaving Skye and heading down South in Scotland to the ferry for NI near Glasgow. But first some stops in the Highlands, like here at Eilean Donan.
Finally rapid again
August 3, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
A rainy charging stop in Fort August. Nessie was not seen - but our first rapid EV charger for a long time!
Strong as an ox
August 3, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
The Wildcat is a wonderful all vegan café in Fort Williams with best food ever and tea ceremony. It does have some advantages to be back in civilisation after many weeks on remote isles...
The famous Loch
August 3, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
Although the name most people can't even pronounce nor remember nor spell - Achtriochtan - everybody who is in the Glencoe area will stop here at least shortly.
Black and White
August 3, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
A wonderful scenery with the white cottage and the almost black Glen Etive in the background.
Check the charging
August 3, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
Cool - at this brand new EV chargers you can see the charging status just by looking at it. Nice idea if there's a queue and you want to know if it's worth the wait.
