    As a fellow filmmaker (nowhere near as good) I know how much time and effort filming something like this costs during a hike! So much respect for the wonderful work :)

    As an amateur photographer, I was totally blown away by this fabulous film documentary of the WHW... I think it's time I got myself up there from Fife and do some photography.
    Top class Ramona. 😊

    I have a thousand questions about your trek but really I would just like to express admiration for completing such an amazing walk by yourself and inspiring this old git in his early morning kitchen to do the same.

    Me and my wife walked the WHW precisely a year before you did, and this video made me relive our exact experience. Amazing how you managed to capture the beautiful scenery and the sentiment of the trip in a very enjoyable watch. Thank you, Ramona!

    Omg your film making is incredible.❤ Thank you so much for doing this. There are so many "vlogs"on the WHW but you have captured the reality and changes in the path. Watching your film has added to my already urge to do this again after 24yrs! Thank you…you have definitely inspired me. This was like watching a documentary! Very professional 😃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🫶🏻

    First of all- what a beautiful name you have!
    Very rare and very pretty!
    🙂
    Now, I've seen a tons of WHW videos, short and long, interesting and boring.
    This one is stunning!
    It's deadly interesting and inspiring, and on top of that- it's made on a very high professional level!
    Just kept my full attention during a whole story, initially I was planning just to kill some time before doing some other things...
    ....and the story itself....
    😋
    At some stage I felt that I'm back in Scotland and walking again some paths.
    Ramona- thank you very much for sharing your experience and thoughts, awesome film, an outstanding work!!!
    Absolutely deserved like and subscription straight away 😉

    First, congratulations on your first long distance solo hike while wild camping. I'm really impressed with how well you handled it, especially coming off food poisoning. Second, you did a tremendous job in capturing the wild Spirit of the Scottish landscape. I had visited Scotland about a decade ago, and it brought back great memories, including that sense of awe and wonder that arises from within us while deep within the majestic mountains of the Highlands. I could FEEL the Joy arising again within me as I watched that beautiful smile on your face. This was the first vid of yours that I caught, and I will be subscribing. I loved your authenticity and the sense of an innocent and bright Spirit that you have. Wonderful job with the music and the cinematography... You have a way with pulling everything together... Thanks for sharing your adventure with Us...

    Stunning film and efforts. Great choice of music. As a hiker, I felt your pain and struggles in this. However, Kudos to you for pushing through all the hardships especially after just recovering from food poisoning. Very inspiring Ramona. Liked and subscribed. Looking forward to see more adventures with you. Big virtual hug for a congratulatory finish and success to this journey 🤗. From Australia.

    I came across your video by chance and I really appreciated, between the very poetic landscapes, the story told in voice-over which is much more introspective and then a choice of relatively well-tuned music. I didn't see the time passing, thank you for this moment

    I have watched a couple of dozen WHW videos but yours is easily the best. The drone and tripod shots were excellent and doing the voice-over in the edit is a vast improvement over the usual aimless babble into a GoPro on the trail. Looking forward to more from you.

    Beautifully filmed and presented. We’ve watched many West Highland Way films and this is excellent. Love the ambient approach (something we do ourselves) with the narrative given. It takes a lot of work to do these videos and editing, something that isn’t always appreciated.
