On a secluded Australian island, a Scottish guy has secured his “dream job” as a lighthouse keeper.
When the previous lighthouse keeper on Gabo Island, off the coast of Victoria, decided to retire after 25 years, 42-year-old Sandy Duthie seized the opportunity.
Five years ago, Sandy, who is from Aberdeenshire, traveled to Australia with his boyfriend and hasn’t left. He realized he would want to contribute to the history of the small lighthouse island when he visited it.
He currently spends six months of the year there, one month on and one month off, with a colony of penguins for company after landing the position of lighthouse keeper and island caretaker.
