This morning I was up at 7am to go and meet a small group of locals who swim in the sea at Stein each morning. I love wild swimming and it is something I have been wanting to get involved with here on Skye. So at 7.30am I adorned my swimming cossie and belly flopped off the jetty at Stein into the sea. What a way to wake up! I felt so alive out there, goggles on, looking at life beneath the waves; starfish, jelly fish, sea urchins. After a wonderful swim I headed home for a warm up in a hot bath and lay there thinking how good life is up here. I am starting to feel a part of the local community. Everyone has been so friendly and welcoming. Nature is all around me. I feel the most tremendous sense of wellbeing unlike I have ever experienced before.
Hi Jane,
I’ve really enjoyed reading through your posts and learning about your new life on Skye. Looking forward to future updates.

I’m afraid not. Just an envious observer from the lowlands of Yorkshire!
