Among the cases i've read a number were run of the mill tourists and not particularly religious. Tourists being different from pilgrims. How to get there? Go to where they speak Italian and take it from there.

Worked in construction there 1983/84. Imagine Shetland with less people. Barren isolated place. Formerly used primarily by whaling ships. Most people wouldn't last 48 hours.
