Join me on a three-day camping adventure in search of wallabies on a remote island in Scotland. On this trip, I paddle across a Scottish loch to a small island where a population of wallabies has been living since the 1940s, with the goal of capturing them on camera.

After reaching the island, I set up camp for the night, explore the area in search of wallabies, and cook myself a well-deserved dinner. It was a long first day, but it ended with an unexpected and unforgettable surprise.

I hope you enjoy the first day of this three-day camping adventure!
