Well hello Edinburgh!! (Seat back flight simulator version).

It’s surreal to be here . This place is so incredibly beautiful, and yet feels so utterly familiar and comfortable. It’s like finding the place that just fits you.

And I did make it a whole hour and a half into my time in Scotland before having a knife pulled on me.

Allow me to explain. It was a butter knife, and pulled by a nice old lady in a service station trying to help meme out opening the SIM slot to accommodate the prepaid card I’d just bought from her. She heard the accent and thought the Croc Dundee reference was hilarious. In hind sight (the wisdom of the stairs as the French say) I should have turned it into a game of knifey spoony.

First photo stop was Finnish glen... some photos to follow shortly. Suffice it to say that the place was mind blowing!Read more
