The Highlands

Posted on September 30, 2016November 25, 2018by Emma

On some trips, there are some days where I want to cry over the fact that I don’t own a car. Granted, I would need to get my license before I could get a car (on my to do list, don’t you worry) and I don’t think I could feasibly justify buying a car at […]

Balquhidder and Loch Voil

Posted on March 26, 2016December 29, 2019by Emma

Have I mentioned how much I love the Trossachs National Park before? What gave it away? Was it the many posts I’ve written about my love for Loch Katrine? And Loch Lomond too? Instead of stuffing my face with Easter eggs this weekend (that was definitely plan B), I was visited by two of my […]

The Trossachs and Sea Lochs

Posted on February 18, 2015November 25, 2018by Emma

With a packed day in Perthshire already under my belt, I woke up early the next morning but ready for another busy day. This time, we were heading to the Trossachs. Now, I’ve been to the Trossachs a few times before but it’s usually just been to go to the gem that is Loch Katrine. […]

Thanks to some logistical changes at Stirling, our spring mid-semester break is now two weeks long. While I will definitely be setting to work on these two essays (I promise), I couldn’t say no to an invitation to explore Scotland! Our very first stop on this two day extravaganza was the Ardoch Roman Fort near […]

Return to Katrine

Posted on October 15, 2013November 25, 2018by Emma

I cannot get enough of Loch Katrine.  I love that it’s only 45 minutes from my flat by car. I love that each time I go it’s ever so slightly different. I love that even though it’s different, it’s still so familiar and comforting. I love that you can get stunning views like the one […]

Virginia Water

Posted on August 18, 2013November 25, 2018by Emma

In between my posts about what I got up to in the Lake District, I thought I’d briefly fill you in on the time I went to Virginia Water in Surrey. Mum was looking for a place to go during the week to make sure my brother actually got some fresh air and I remembered […]
