Jacob’s love of the Scottish Highlands and its wildlife probably originates from numerous holidays to the west coast and islands. It is hardly a surprise then that he chose the University of Edinburgh to study social geography, paying particular interest in the socio-cultural landscape of the rural Highlands. A love of wildlife, and particularly wildlife photography, has taken Jacob around the world, most notably to the Peruvian Amazon where he worked at a Scientific Research Station but it was the call of the Highlands that brought him to Aigas to further his love and knowledge of the fascinating biodiversity of the area.
