Sounds like a great trip, it's always wonderful to spend time with puffins and other sea birds, it's so sad that their numbers are declining so much. I visited the Treshnish isles off the West coast of Scotland years ago and loved being surrounded by puffins. Sumburgh Head in Shetland is another wonderful place to see them.
Congratulations on being freelance! I worked a little bit as a freelancer in the past and, to my experience, the most practical advice (that I find useful also as an employed worker now) always came from Carl Pullein on YouTube. He brings a fantastic energy into his work and encourages frameworks rather than apps/products. Maybe you'll be able to find some inspiration there too 💚
Delighted you had the opportunity to cool down and breathe deeply, and see puffins. Thank you for sharing your trip and photos, and I wish you the very best regarding your career (and all else) 😊
I returned yesterday from a week spent near Bamburgh and Seahouses, escaping Birmingham and indulging in nature so I very much identify with this!
We didn’t make it over to Farne (several likely sea-sick travellers amongst us!) but travelled to spots along the coast and watched all kinds of birds including ringed plovers, eider, redshanks, little terns, gannets, and a LOT of curlews!
There were no puffins for us, but just that time away from the city was so refreshing and restorative!

Ooh lovely - haven't been there, I'll take a trip!
Such a great trip!
Saw them in David Attenborough's Wild Isles for the first time, and I hope I'll visit them, too.
Definitely if you can
