I confess to being a little confused as to why 2 people would consider relocating to an area that they clearly know little about, for a period of 6 months or longer.
Obviously I do not know where you have come from, but most people moving to Uist will experience a huge change from their lives elsewhere.
The area is beautiful yet fragile and employment is scarce. It seems unfair that people should move into an area for a short while and take away potential employment from local people who have and will continue to live there all their lives....if they can. Many many families are broken up as one or more of them are forced to move away from the area to find work elsewhere.
I would urge you to think seriously about taking work away from local families to satisfy some whimsical notion you may have of living (albeit briefly) in such a fragile area.
