The Island's Only Taxi
12,125 views
Eigg is one of four small islands off the coast of Scotland, populated by sheep, dogs, and 109 local residents. Charlie Galli drives the only taxi on the island. He moved here looking to find a slower way of life, and a community who place greater value on relationships and conversation than they do on their mobile phones. "Sometimes I think there's too much technology involved in life," he says. "It's not real—you're not meeting people, you're not grabbing their hand and shaking it. We're losing that power - the art of conversation."
