เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 8 มี.ค. 2022
Thanks so much for finding us here in Edinburgh, Scotland!
My name is Adrienne! I am a Canadian based in Edinburgh with my super-cool Scottish husband and our dog Nacho. We recently moved here from Toronto, Canada, and are dumbfounded by the incredible beauty and rich history Scotland holds. With COVID restrictions lifted, Nacho and I are hellbent on learning and seeing as much as we can in our new country. We intend to do so through extensive research to provide the most accurate information possible. Our aim is to uncover hidden places and stories that are sometimes off-the-beaten-path through talking to local people and using the wealth of resources that are available to us here.
Do you have any interest in Scotland, Edinburgh, history, castles, architecture, scenery, whisky, pubs, inventions, literature, witches, food, storytelling, and/or dogs? - You should probably subscribe if you do!
Slàinte Mhath!
