a little film about the isle of skye.



Not to overload you on little films, but lately I've been dying to relive my trip to Europe. Our drive through the Scottish Highlands to the Isle of Skye was one of the most amazing experiences of my life thus far, and in retrospect it seems completely surreal. This video makes me feel all kinds of nostalgic and sometimes puts a little lump in my throat (although it doesn't even begin to do justice to the beauty of the highlands)! Hope you enjoy.

um... this is the best! I studied abroad in England and Scotland and how I've forgot how beautiful it is. If you decide to make a little film about your time in Edinburgh I'd be okay with that too! =)

Absolutely gorgeous - my husband to be is from Troon, Scotland (on the western coast in Ayrshire) and I can't tell you how excited I am to spend a lifetime visiting his family, his friends and exploring his home together!

Oh my gosh... I studied abroad in England and left such a huge piece of my heart there---I relate to the lump-in-the-throat feeling! :)

I totally love the fact that you mix islandic music with scottish impressions - it's so much magic in both.
