How does Geoffrey introduce tonight’s Isle of Skye bedtime story?

Hello, Geoffrey here, and welcome back to Nightfalls. I wanted to let you know that our first two Nightfalls audiobooks, Discovering Nightfalls and The Magic of Nightfalls, are now available across Spotify and Audible. Each book brings together almost eight hours of uninterrupted stories from the falls, designed to help you relax, unwind and drift off at your own pace. You can find them wherever you get your audiobooks. And if you do listen, we'd be so grateful for a review. It really helps us and helps more listeners find Nightfalls. One of my favorite things in the world is to be somewhere remote, to be off grid. Not because I don't want to connect. More because I want to connect fully. To think clearly and to be more present.

There's so many parts of Scotland that are glorious for doing just that. And tonight, we join Leah as she travels to her new house in the rural Isle of Skye. There she plans to change her life and turn an old croft house into a cosy home and painting studio. As the weather becomes warmer, she adjusts to Highland life and begins to embrace creativity and new beginnings. Before we begin, here's the quick ad break that keeps this free content possible.

You know, there are a lot of different places here in Night Falls, but during the day, I still find myself wanting to learn a little more about the world. That's what led me to Everything Everywhere Daily.

It's one of the most popular daily education podcasts, even recently ranked the number one history podcast. And each episode is about 10 minutes, so it's easy to fit into your day. They cover everything from history and science to fascinating people and moments you might never have come across otherwise. Some recent episodes I really liked include one on the history of curling, which as a Scot I have a soft spot for, tracing it back to medieval Scotland. Or their episode on the world's greatest art museums, which I found myself really drawn to. I've always loved art, and hearing the stories behind these places makes it feel surprisingly immersive. So if you like the idea of learning something new without it ever feeling like work,

Learn something new every single day with Everything Everywhere daily. Find it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you've ever wanted to lose yourself in a land of wizards, goblins, and creatures that really shouldn't be able to talk, Somewhere between the tales we tell here and somewhere entirely new, Hello from the Magic Tavern is waiting for you. It's an improvised comedy podcast set in the fantastical land of Foon, hosted by Arnie Niekamp alongside his co-hosts Udisor the Wizard and Chunt the Talking Badger. Each episode, they interview the creatures, spellcasters, and adventurers that wander through from throughout the land. A mix of storytelling, improv comedy, and pure absurdity.

Find Hello from the Magic Tavern wherever you listen to your podcasts. All right, now back to Nightfalls. Before we head to the Highlands, close your eyes for a moment. Take a slow breath in through your nose. Let it fill your chest gently. Hold it for a second. Now breathe out slowly, letting your shoulders soften and your jaw unclench. Imagine the breath leaving you. Take another calm breath in and let it go again, unhurried. Any thoughts you have, just observe them. Watch them as they move and eventually pass. Let's begin. Leah saw a picture of the house online. She knew she had to have it. Truth be told, she'd been looking for something like this for a long time. She was in no rush, though, and she knew she'd find her perfect home when the time was right.

The picture was from an auction site, and it showed a small house, nothing fancy in the slightest. It was not exactly the house that drew her in, but the surroundings. The cottage was directly in front of a loch. The picture showed the loch, a stretch of beautiful blue water framed by gentle hills on either side, covered with grass and scattered patches of heather.
