Find all my posts here on this beautiful country – but I recommend checking out my dedicated Scotland section instead!
Considering I’ve now lived across the bridge from Fife for over eighteen months, I had seen very little of my neighbouring county until recently. The Kingdom Of Fife. It sounds so grand, doesn’t it? Truthfully, Fife has never really piqued my interest in the way that other places around Scotland have. Until last year, I …
After more than three months in lockdown, Scotland finally lifted their five mile travel limit at the beginning of July. Naturally, the first day we could go out, we went straight out to nature, and subsequently spent four weekends in a row roaring our way around some of Scotland’s hidden gems and underrated sites. If …
In happier times, we celebrated our ten year anniversary. Ten. YEARS! It’s hard to believe it was only a few months ago, in January, that we set off from Edinburgh for a weekend of rare luxury in a castle over on the west coast of Scotland to celebrate. It was an area I’ve never visited …
I’m not going to lie… I’ve been really lacking motivation recently. Not just for the blog, but for virtually everything in my life. I thought I was okay. I could see light at the end of the tunnel, and I still can, but it feels like we’re wading through treacle trying to get there. I’ve …
It’s been a while since I did a Photo Friday post, and it’s been hard to build up the motivation to look through travel photos when we don’t know when we’ll ever be able to travel again, let alone with everything that has been going on in our lives personally. On that note, I wanted …
A few months ago, my friend and I set off on a week-long adventure around Scotland, with a focus on the famous North Coast 500 route. We were doing it all on a budget, which meant taking my car and camping in a tent as we went. Luckily, camping in Scotland is made even easier …
When we started planning our North Coast 500 trip, I knew we needed to make a detour over to Skye. After all, I’ve lived in Scotland (on and off) for 30 years… …and had NEVER been there!! When people plan a trip to Scotland, it’s as if there are only two destinations here: Edinburgh and …
In the years we’ve now lived in Edinburgh, I’ve cultivated a solid list of favourite pubs, bars and eateries. While Glasgow certainly ticks all the nightlife boxes and gets most of the attention on that front, it’s for that reason that I’d like to share some of Edinburgh’s quirky, unusual and unique spots – especially …
A few months ago, my friend and I set off on a week-long adventure around Scotland. My friend had wanted to do the North Coast 500 road trip; and being that she had never been to Scotland outside of Edinburgh, I wanted to make sure we hit up some of the highlights of my beautiful …
2019 has been all about the next huge step of our lives. It’s been about accepting the end of long-term travel adventures and embracing the new adventure of finding our forever home. For us, it was always going to be Edinburgh. We’ve been low-key planning to move to Edinburgh for pretty much the past decade …
