We explore the beautiful beach of Calgary Bay, and take a wildlife trip from Tobermory with Staffa Tours to Staffa Island and the Treshnish Isles where we spot puffins!
We then head south to explore the beautiful beaches of Iona, before we head off to the Outer Hebrides which we will cover in the next two videos!

About us:
We're Jack and Jo, and that hairy, scruffy little guy is Frank our adventure dog. Since 2020 we've been living and working from our tiny home on wheels, as we seek an alternative way of living. We sold our flat in London to live an alternative lifestyle. Quitting city life for Van Life, and we haven't looked back.
Our Story:
In September 2020, we sold our flat in London in search of an alternative way of life. We bought a van. Had it converted into an adventure van/come office. Picked up a furry co-pilot - our border terrier adventure dog Frank, and set-out on the road.
We haven't looked back since.

Nice to relive our memories of a wonderful trip to Mull, Iona and Staffa through your excellent video. Fidden campsite is simply the best. We also did not manage to get much of a sight of otters, but then we went on to Strontian and the Ardnamurchan peninsual, and got a fantastic experience with otters at the wildlife hide on Loch Sunart.
Thanks for watching! We're going to have to check out the wild life hide on Loch Sunart!
Tiny home on wheels? That's huge. We are off to Mull next week (mid October) in our 5m campervan. Lovely dog.
Haha! Compared to a house it's tiny! Enjoy Mull in your (smaller!) tiny home on wheels! We loved it there, bet it's really beautiful in autumn too!
"Best birthday ever"!!! Loved that so much! This was my first video - loved it and subscribed. Awesome job both 😀
Aww thank you! It was a pretty awesome birthday! 👌
Hello Folks,,
Cracking Video..
I Was On The Same Boat Trip Heading Out To Lunga..
It Was An Interesting Trip…
Do You Remember The Seasick Woman 😄👍
Keep Up The Great Work..
Cheers From Mike, At The Highland Fox Sanctuary 🏴🦊🤙
Thanks Mike! How funny, yep, we do remember the boat trip 😂 that poor woman was quite rattled by the rough seas eh! 😬
It makes you wonder about those early missionaries. How are we going to spread the word to the people of Scotland? I know, we'll camp out on a remote island, off the coast of a remote island, off the coast of the country we're trying to convert!
😂😂 you raise a very good point there!
Hi, you guys do a great job capturing the beauty. Nice editing. Really enjoyed learning as we are traveling there in just a few weeks. Thank you
Thanks! Enjoy your trip - we loved Mull! 🤙
Great Stuff - Love it and your Border...👍👍
Thanks for watching! Frank's the star of the show 😅♥️
Discovered your channel through this video. Looks absolutely beautiful there. Looking forward to watching more of your vids.
Awesome! We loved our trip to Mull (as well as the other islands!), So much so, we're gearing up to head back up to Scotland again this summer! 🙌
Otter Hebrides haha love it! Looks like an awesome time you’re having guys! I bet Frank and our Basie would get along so well…mega zoomies on the beach! Keep safe :)
Hahah - probably the best cliff-hanger pun ending? Thanks for watching guys! And absolutely! As long as Basie loves chasing, Frank is there until he has to be forcibly removed from the beach !
Hope your travels are going good?
Great video guys 👍🏻
Thank you and thanks for watching! We looved Mull! 🤙
Love your videos!!! You got yourself a new subscriber :-)
Ahh hey guys! We love your campsite 😍! Thanks for watching!
Just been there. Great videos
Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! Did you catch any otters? 👀
Going in September can't wait! My note book is ready to take notes
Wahoo! September will come around quickly we're sure :)! We loved Mull, but Scotland really turned it on for our next part of our trip. Looking forward to sharing! (We may also do a blog once these videos are done too!)
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Well what else would you do with a notebook?😂
Soooo so great video :) We very appreciate your journey in scotland
Thanks for much for watching and commenting! We love Scotland, have you been before? We'd looove to get the van to Morocco one day!
@@TheseWildJourneys Yeah we have been 2 times there already. Last winter we spend there for 6 weeks with our camper "Pumbaa". It was so amazing...we definitly are going back to scotland after our big adventure in Africa.
Yeah do that!!! But dont do it in the summer time..the heat is freaking us out sometimes ^^ :D
Just watched your NC500 video! Beautiful scenes, we're now subbed 😍!
And we bet it's baking! Sounds fun though, but definitely one for a cooler month for us! Looking forward to seeing more of your trip! 🤙
@@TheseWildJourneys Ooh you should do the nc500 for sure...we only explored a little Part of it. There is so much more to see :) But maybe not in the summer time..could be a lot of traffic:D When we did before christmas...there were nobody...was the greatest gift Scotland could offer us ❤️
Lovely greetings from Agadir
My list of thoughts and questions:
1. Can Frank be a hitchhiker? Does he have thumbs?
2. Did the cafe do vegan AND gluten free cake?
3. Do you always have to have cash on you to pay for the camp spots?
4. Who knew there would be dolphins and puffins here?!
5. Please trademark Frank having a 'poo with a view'
6. It looks like it got sunnier towards the end, was it warm? You were still wearing coats!
7. Will you ever see Otters?? We shall see!
Haha so many questions!
1. Absolutely, just sticks a paw out!
2. Gluten may have been included, but Jo is now back off the gluten 🤣
3. Cash is key on the Hebrides! Well, just for the donation boxes
4. And Eagles, whales and sharks!
5. 😂 Maybe!
6. Still a bit chilly, but if you watch the next few, we get a lot warmer!
7. 👀👀!
What month did you go? Thanks ❤
We went at the end of May - it was a good time to go, it was just warming up and a few weeks after Scotland had some beautiful weather!
@@TheseWildJourneys thanks for reply!! Planning a trip there next summer (van newbies) 💙
@@nikkinoo47 awesome! You'll have the best time 🙌
Oh did you manage to found a lot of vegan food ?
Really easy, we were surprised! There's a great pub in Tobermory that did the most incredible pie that we didn't include 🤤! Our best tip is to download Happy Cow, then we research ahead!
But we forgot how easy it is to be vegan in the UK and Scotland!
Vegans arent healthy
