Welcome to our "Life on Skye" site

Welcome to our website - We're glad you dropped by, and hope you come back often. Feel free to surf around and see if you like what's on here.We're originally from Holland but decided to move to the beautiful Isle of Skye, one of the islands off the west coast of Scotland.

This site features a blog with our experiences as incomers to Skye, some history on our house build project and the possibility to search the links we collected on Skye.

Enjoy your stay!

Blog on our Skye experiences

We try to write down as many of our experiences on Skye as we can. Building a life in another country is sometimes surprisingly... ehm... challenging when you have to restore simple things like bank accounts, broadband and a telephone line. Read all about it in our blog.

Search our links on Skye

We've been collecting links on Skye for quite a while now. We were looking for a way to share them with other people but could not find the right medium. Until Google introduced a feature called "Custom Search". Check it out if you need to find something related to Skye.

Read about our house build project

During 2004, 2005 and 2006 we bought our plot of land on Skye, designed our own "highland Home", gathered all the necessary paperwork needed to build a house and selected a builder to build it. Check out the project here from start to finish.
