On my 50th birthday, I met an amazing storyteller and guide who took me and my wife on a fantastic journey though the highlands of Scotland, the Isle of Skye, and the world of the fairies. Some might claim this storyteller was a fairy himself: but if so, he hides his pointy ears quite well! This was no "tour", mind you.
