Dangling on the end of Scotland’s Inner Hebrides, it escapes the overwhelming tourism of Skye but has less edge-of-the-world freshness and excitement of an Outer Hebridean island like Barra or deserted Mingulay (see my essay on Barra here).

I&#8217;ve been hanging out in Mexico for the past month and have a few weeks longer here. When I go out for breakfast, I&#8217;m pretty happy.
In many countries it&#8217;s tough for a traveler from the U.S., Canada, or Europe to get jazzed up about the typical local breakfast. That fish ball soup or innards with [...]]]></description>
