After years of meticulous planning, research, and exploration, Laurie and Misa are thrilled to announce the forthcoming release of their comprehensive guide to the Shetland Islands.

With stunning colour photographs and 256 pages filled with in-depth information, local insights and great tips, Shetland: Your Essential Guide is a labour of love, born from a shared dedication to showcasing the islands' natural beauty, intriguing history, and vibrant community life. This guidebook offers readers a unique perspective on exploring Shetland.

"This guidebook is a love letter to our islands, a thank-you of sorts. A thank-you for the summer nights, the winter storms, the calm and the chaos; they are a thank-you for the sting of salt on the cheeks and the first warmth from the May sun, and an acknowledgement of the extreme privilege I have to be able to call Shetland my home." — Laurie Goodlad

About Misa and Laurie

Our paths crossed and intertwined years ago, rooted in our work at the Shetland Museum and Archives, where our shared passion for Shetland's rich heritage and natural beauty developed into a friendship.

But our story is not just about the past. After many years of employment, both Laurie and I decided to embrace the path of self-employment, driven by a deep desire to pursue our dreams and share our love for Shetland with the world.

Laurie, with her experience as an assistant curator and her qualifications as a tour guide, has blossomed into a remarkable travel writer.

Meanwhile, Misa’s background in tourism and marketing, coupled with a role as a heritage manager, which led me to establish a tour company and 60 North Publishing.
