I will be staying in something very similar to this when I begin my project, it's called a 'Bothy' and i will be supplied withy own firewood and coals to keep me warm throughout the night.

The Guardian has recently run a story on Scoraig trying to find a teacher for its school of  5 pupils that age from 5-10 years old. Above are the five pupils and the two girls and the tallest boy happen to be my cousins. This is how I am gaining access to the location. A few of my loose family members up and left their 'normally' structured lives to move to Scoraig away from everybody, this project won't just look at alternative ways of living, but look at the way in which such a huge move to such a contrasting area has effected the children. Their only friends now are the two others in the school and their siblings which must be quite a restrictive way to grow up.

Pictured is the jetty that connects mainland Scotland and Scoraig to one another, this is the jetty that is used to get the post and any other important things needed on the peninsula. This is where I will arrive once I am picked up from Inverness.
