A Year in Shetland - Islands of Opportunity  

Never mind making me want to visit, it's making me want to live there......fascinating part of the UK, and the only part I have not yet been to....

Thank you Jon. I'm looking forward to visiting Shetland in August/September 2023. In the meantime I enjoy the Shetland Webcams and chat forum.

I lived in Shetland for 7 years in 1976 in virkie and I loved it and wished we never left

What a beautiful video! My family came to the USA from Scotland almost 200 years ago and I have a strong calling to return and experience it. We spent a wonderful week a couple years ago in Edinburgh, but really want to head off the beaten path, to the North, and experience your islands. Thanks so much for your video. It is now a must for me.

Very interesting and beautiful documentary. Thank you for making this video.

Wonderful video! I had no idea what a treasure trove Shetland is for history lovers and its spectacular scenery! ! The fire festival is a powerful and awe inspiring first look at your home! Beautifully done!

I'm going to shetland today and now I'll now five words they say 🙂

Can’t wait!! Absolutely gorgeous; on my bucket list for sure!!!

I would come for a visit if I could - such a beautiful place & culture. I love that you are keeping the Viking history alive and everybody looked so happy & thrilled to be doing that enactment ! Thank you for your great video !

Breathtaking!!!🔥 Someday I will visit the land of my ancestors 🤟

How I miss Shetland and its people ! Last time over there I have been from April 2011 till Marz 2012!

Thank you so much for this what a wonderful place.

On my bucket list…thank you so much.

We just returned from visiting Shetland. This is so true to the island's beauty!

Absolutely brilliant! Can’t wait to come

Very nicely done!!! Beautiful!

A wonderful video. Thank you for sharing. We are so looking forward to another return trip. ❤️

The accent is gorgeous, whit those thrilled 'r' and you can clearly hear Nordic influences. How are the opportunities for the EU citizens to live and work in Shetland?

Stunning.❤

Oh, thank you!

This is an amazing video thank you.

Very good video! I also loved Shetland when I was there 5 years ago with my family. Unfortunately only for one week.

Such a beautiful , peaceful and well put together video . Thankyou😊

Fantastic video ❤

Fabulous video. Thank you!

Really nice video youre editing is good

Also, proil is still a Swedish word, I think. They spell it 'pryl' now, but it means the same as the Shetland word. In Norwegian 'pryl' means getting beat up, though. Languages are weird.

Are there jobs for foreigners who want to live in Shetland?

Wow, what a beautiful place on this planet. This video is astonishing, I was mesmerized by the beauty, history and culture. I want to see more, please make another video and share about the ruins and it’s history. I can’t wait to come visit💜💙💜💙. Kathleen, San Diego, California.

I was reassured that there was a glimpse of goodness still left in the world @8:25

Nice video ❤

Oh man, really did me dirty with that thumbnail 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

Unfortunately the central mainland has now been turned into an industrial site with 103 wind turbines with more to come. At 165 metres in height there is nowhere they cannot be seen from spoiling the 'breathtaking views'

Coming in late July from England with two jabs

Tree?

My tips on visiting and enjoying your stay in Scotland are - Do not venture out of the main Tourist areas - Avoid Falkirk at all costs. Since the SNP took control of Falkirk Council crime has increased esp anti sociAl behaviour, hate crimes are RIFE, Alcoholism is also Rife as is Domestic Violence (both male and female abusers), if you are a victim of crime you the victim will be treated like the guilty party whilst thr perpetrator is protected by Police & Council, drugs everywhere of which the police ignore and the vast majority of drugs are in council properties. - Despite what the SNP/Government say, LGBT Hate Crimes are high and increasing as is Xenophobia and Bigotry. - Suicides are out of control and spoken about as a joke, not taken seriously. - DO NOT MOVE HERE, life sux and you will shorten your lifespan living in Scotland. - The vast majority of Scots would leave Scotland if they could. - Do not get into a conversation about Independence as you dont know what that person views are and it can turn heated in seconds if you say the wrong thing. Avoid talking about it altogether. In daying all that, Scotland is a stunning place, well all but Falkirk, thanks to the Council, police, alcoholics, druggies, Bigots, Scotland great to visit bur hell living here.

Spot the tree or even a bush or some flowers ..so barron and desolate...I'd long to see a forest or woodland which I consider to be more beautiful... interesting and well made video but not for me. .

On a good day scotland is the best place to live in the world, but good day's are very rare :) even when it's raining we go out with shorts on thinking it's summer

Beautiful I have fallen in love with Shetland , our plans are to sell up and move to Shetland

When I have watched anything about Shetland, it has taken my breath away. Absolutely tugs at my soul. (Even the TV series Shetland, lol!). I have discovered my great grandfather and grandmother on my mother's paternal side, came from there, and have traced back to the 1700s, and everyone further up (down?!) the tree also comes from there. On my father's side, absolutely Scottish (lowlands). So interesting. I've only ever been to Edinburgh. What I would give to visit Shetland, and some other isles, and Scotland more thoroughly. Fantastic watch, is this piece.

This is a stunning vid, thank you. I adore Shetland, having visited my sister there many times. A truly stunning place and culture 🙏

OK so give me a job and I'll come.

what a great video, thank you

Awesome Video! I can‘t wart to visit Shetland one day 😍

you are very talented in making great video,,, your editing skills are awesome

Interesting documentary. My husband and I visited Shetland Sept 2022. When we visited Scalloway museum my husband purchased the Shetland Bus book, which he thoroughly enjoyed.

What a beautiful place closest I've been to the shetlands is John o'groats last year we did 7 months travelling scotland in are camper and loved every minute of it

Nice video, very visual; but can't we hear the islands, instead of the annoying music?

Most enjoyable

I really miss Shetland! I traveled here in the summer of 2022 and it was an unforgettable memory. Thanks for your amazing video :)))

We spent a week there in 2019. The experience still lives inside me. In addition to the island beauty and history, the people of Shetland will always be in my heart -

We are NOT Scotland.

From Estonia,Thank you what a great video.Beautiful.

It is a little weird that there are no trees. Is it the wind?

2020 Covid stop me from going there. still planning on going.

There were no Shetland sheepdogs in this video. Disappointed.
