  • In the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, life on the Isle of Harris has been largely influenced by the practice of crofting, a small-scale agricultural tradition that has been passed down for generations. In this short film by Joya Berrow, follow the quiet life of crofter Donald John Macinnes as he tends to his sheep and cows in the staggeringly beautiful landscape.

    Crofting is a unique agricultural practice passed down generations in this part of Scotland. If you were a part of this community, do you think you would be able to uphold this physically demanding tradition? Why or why not?

    As much as I love this, as a local (inner Hebrides) my community has already been so affected by rampant unregulated tourism (thank you Harry potter), so there's parts of my country I'd probably cry if I saw a tour bus arrive in. Big up BBC alba on here!

    I used to live in the Hebrides and let me tell you that on a sunny day, it really is the most beautiful place on Earth. However, be warned, the weather is brutal most of the time!

    I learned to love the Scottish accent but my first experience with their articulation was unexpected. A fisherman said "It's me torrn to shucka pun." After much research and queries I discovered that what the fisherman had said was, "It's my turn to shake a pan," meaning it was his turn to cook on the boat that night. Lol.
