The gorgeous Roman Baths of Bath

dsc_0239

Bath was a little place of heaven on earth for me.

There was nothing particularly outstanding about the day I had there, travel wise at least, but it meant a lot to me personally.

For a day I got to wander around this absolutely gorgeous town, soaking in the history of it before soaking myself into luxurious relaxation in the afternoon – all while hand-in-hand with my man, while we were still blissfully in that soppy “honeymoon” stage.

I’ll always remember my day trip to Bath as one of the happiest and loveliest days of my life, because it was simply blissful (and beautiful!). Continue reading “The gorgeous Roman Baths of Bath”

The breathtaking Cliffs of Moher

On the western coast of Ireland, there is a little touch of what I imagine to be heaven.

The Cliffs of Moher were undoubtedly my favourite sight that my eyes beheld on my journey through Ireland and the United Kingdom.

Seriously, I fell deeply in love with this place – I could have built a little shack into a rocky hovel of the cliff face and lived there happily ever after.

It felt like the place of fairytales.

Walking the Giants Causeway, Northern Ireland

IMG_5137

We took the “ordinary” path for travellers doing a road trip across from Scotland to Ireland.

An early morning departure from Glasgow, driving down the highways to Cairnryan; ferry across from Cairnryan to Belfast; One night in Belfast then a trip to the Giants Causeway as we moved south.

An “ordinary” path filled with extraordinary sights, however.

Welcome to one of the most beautiful places on earth (in my official opinion): The Giants Causeway.

Exploring cemeteries and getting science lessons in Glasgow, Scotland

DSC_0567

I wasn’t sure what to expect out of Glasgow.

I knew it was a metropolitan city, that it was one of the largest cities in Scotland, and that it was a recommended place to visit.

That was about all I knew, and there were no attractions that I was absolutely dying to see (since I didn’t really know of any).

I simply wanted to come and see Glasgow, get acquainted with this Scottish town, and find out what it had to offer.

That I did, my friends, that I did.

Roadtripping through the Scottish Highlands

DSC_0440

What do you think of when someone mentions the Scottish Highlands?

Loch Ness, the home of Nessie? Well, that’s a fair call – the Loch Ness is a particularly popular attraction of Scotland’s northern region.

However, what I came to find during my time there is that the Scottish Highlands are certainly not just the Loch Ness – Oh no, this Scottish region is so much more than that.

The Loch Ness is just one tiny part of it.

Going Harry Potter crazy in Edinburgh, Scotland

DSC_0363

As we moved into Scotland, we officially passed into my 30th country visited in the world.

We also moved into one of the most beautiful and interesting countries I’ve ever visited, yet I felt completely at home.

It was a sentiment I felt the whole way through my road trip in the UK and Ireland, but it wasn’t until I got to Edinburgh that I realised what that niggling feeling in my stomach was: It was ease, and comfort.

Two feelings that come when you feel a strong attachment to a country or region.

Two feelings I was feeling very strongly.
