    I've been in LOVE with Scotland since my first visit at 40 years old in 2018 - my heart belongs there, I belong there - so beautiful and peaceful, sadly I'm American and it's too difficult to relocate there 😪

      are they though? there is so much variety in Scotland, all the Lochs, forests, moors, rolling hills, pointy hills, jagged rocky hill, amazing beaches, so many beautiful islands, no where compares.None of the countries you mention have that variety

      @ThePostbear Před 6 lety

      Ive been travelling to the "Most Beautiful Country In The World" ie Scotland for the last 10 years and have still not seen all its beauty-there is so much . Scotland is now officially the "Most Beautiful Country In The World " after being voted exactly that by the Worlds leading travel guides and experts -particularly by the Worlds most used travel guide the "Rough Guide" -and their readership should know as they voted for it. No wonder you have only 4 subscribed to your channel-It sounds like you come from a less beautiful part of the UK and your jealous . Troll on .

      How do you know you belong there when you haven't lived there for many years. I am from Scotland, born and raised but have also lived in England too, England is also so beautiful. You need to appreciate where you are because all these videos only show the best of a place and make you question the place you currently live which is rediculous.

    • @solomonhardcastle5673
      @solomonhardcastle5673 Před 8 lety +3

      +Manel Muchi The thing is, we get more rain and wind than sun so as attractive and as wild as our country is it's also a bit annoying. Example: My greenhouse blew away a few weeks ago when storm Desmond hit.

    • @ManelMuchi
      @ManelMuchi Před 8 lety +2

      ***** Strangely that's exactly what captivates me the most about Scotland. For my taste, it's a piece of heaven on earth, somewhere I'll always dream of.
      Where I live (north Africa) we get a lot of sun, too much sun that it becomes super irritating at times. The weather is so calm, so blinding and plain boring. So I guess the sun will always be more annoying, fire's never better than water.
      PS: I'm sorry for your greenhouse.

    • @solomonhardcastle5673
