Stornoway, United Kingdom
Experience life on the edge. This is the motto of the island community of Stornoway, on the Isle of Lewis. And it makes sense since they're located on the northern edge of the Scottish Western Isles, also known as the Outer Hebrides. Remote, rugged, uniquely scenic, the capital city of Stornoway is captivating. Hear the chatter of Gaelic and the unmistakable pitch of the bagpipes, breathe in the aroma of peat from the local smokehouses as they prepare the day's catch and watch for wildlife, including northern birds like the Arctic skua, golden eagle and corncrake.
