From the crew of the ferry from Mallaig to Armadale, I learned the joy of stopping take in what is in front of you.

In front of us was a pod of Short-beaked common dolphins. The crew turned the ferry towards the dolphins and killed the engine – it was a moment of collective joy.

From Ocean Vuong, I understood that "The hardest thing in the world is to only live once."
