Once again through the big city

This morning we were woken up by the sun and a bus tour. A bus stopped right at our overnight spot to allow passengers to take photos of Loch Ness. After about 10 minutes of...

There is not much new to report today, I have prepared my luggage for the return journey with the flixbus, as the departure tomorrow will be relatively early. After that was...

Impressions from Scotland

Today, punctually at 11 am after the camping routine (filling up water, emptying the toilet and draining waste water), we set off towards Cairngorm (which is a mountain)......

Everyone knows it and it's full of tourists. But I still love it. It's also because I can meet friends there who have welcomed me despite their busy schedules. Nice...
