Everything and Anything
Update on life in Scotland in lockdown
With the end of February next week we are actually basically in quite a strict lockdown in Scotland for 4 months. The last time I was outside of Fife, except the 2 weeks in Germany over Christmas, was beginning of November at Lochearnhead. I am really glad I was able to see my family back… Read more “Update on life in Scotland in lockdown”
The difference between “I like being alone” and actually being alone.
I am writing this from MY perspective and MY experience. Everyone has their own experience with the topic. For example, you can be in a relationship and feel lonely, even though you are not physically alone. You can be in a group of people and feel alone, because you just don’t feel connected to anyone… Read more “The difference between “I like being alone” and actually being alone.”
What to do around Fife
As of lockdown and travel restrictions I had a lot of time to explore Fife in the last months. If you plan your next trip to Scotland once this horror show is over, you may want to visit the beautiful Kingdom as well, which is often overlooked because everyone heads straight up to Glencoe and… Read more “What to do around Fife”
2020 – A little review
Let’s be honest – 2020 was one of the shittest year of our time. I thought I had bad years before… 2015 was awful. 2017 was my worst year until 2020 came along. But overall I was lucky. I did not lose my job. I did not catch Covid (as far as I know). All… Read more “2020 – A little review”
Mid 30ies and still single – why?
This is a very personal blog post again. If you follow me on Instagram you probably see my regular posts and stories on the topic but mostly there is not enough space to write everything I would want to. Being a long-term single is almost a part of me now, hence I am talking about… Read more “Mid 30ies and still single – why?”
A journey on the Jacobite Train (aka Hogwarts Express)
As a proper Harry Potter fan it has always been on my bucket list to do the journey on the Jacobite train from Fort William to Mallaig. Normally though the tickets for the journey are booked out months in advance. So you actually need to know specifically when you will be in Fort William to… Read more “A journey on the Jacobite Train (aka Hogwarts Express)”
My Assynt and Torridon Trip – October 2020
The areas of Assynt and Torridon are mostly known because of the popular North Coast 500 which goes right through both territories. For anyone who has not yet heard of the NC500 (which is almost impossible 😉) – it is basically Scotland’s answer to the Route 66. The route is 516 miles (830 km) long… Read more “My Assynt and Torridon Trip – October 2020”
Solo adventuring
If you follow me on Instagram you probably noticed that I am out and about alone most of the time. At the beginning, or when I travelled to Scotland for holidays, it was firstly mainly because I just did not have anyone who was interested in the same kind of activities and before not going… Read more “Solo adventuring”
Ardnamurchan
Beginning of September I spent 3 days in one of the remotest areas of Scotland’s mainland. People that live in the area of Ardnamurchan, Morvern and Ardgour need to go over 45 miles (depending where they live even further) to Fort William if they need to do bigger shopping or need to do other necessities.… Read more “Ardnamurchan”
Affair of the heart – Travelling Scotland respectfully
I have not written anything for quite some time, despite several adventures since lockdown has ended for Scotland. I have been on a big road trip to the highlands on the first day we were allowed to travel again despite the most horrendous rain for most of the day. I have been to Northumberland twice… Read more “Affair of the heart – Travelling Scotland respectfully”
