The Sounds of Mousa - Two trips to Mousa Broch (+ Shetland Travel Tips)


Listen Later

'The Sounds of Mousa' is a story about two back-to-back trips I did to Mousa, a small island off the west coast of Shetland. First, we head there at night to witness the return of thousands of storm petrels to their nests. The next day, we return in daylight to explore Mousa Broch and the trails across the island. Along the way, we'll meet the men who take you to the island, learn about traditional sheep farming and dive into the history of the island.

At the end of the episode, I share my top tips for a slow adventure to Mousa and the surrounding area.
