- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2024
- Join me on my east to west journey along the Moray Coast Trail. This spectacular section of Scotland has so much to offer and is full of incredible geology and history. For anyone thinking of visiting Scotland this may help you decide which area to see or offer a complete guide to walking along the Moray Coast. Whether you are a solo female hiker, a family, or a group of friends, you will thoroughly enjoy this part of Scotland. In addition to the coast you can also explore the famous Whiskey Trail or walk the Speyside Way which takes you from the coast into the beautiful Cairngorms. I moved to Moray county three years ago and still feel that I have so much to discover!

I am a married mother of 2, work a full time job and an artist. I long to travel so badly, so I'm so appreciative of these videos as I'm living vicariously thru you and your travels. Many days I feel 'stuck' in life and these videos help❤

I’m so happy you find joy watching them ☺️
I live in the northeast of Scotland and know the places you visit really well - well enough to be super-impressed at how your ability to capture beautiful photography comes through. Your channel is full of so many great ideas - we're lucky to have you living here!
Oh yes, want to visit beautiful scotland. Im from Germany love the nature and Sarah, too🙂
Moray is a beautiful part of the North East of Scotland. There's so much to see and do especially for outdoor activities.
Just wonderful. I solo walked 120 miles on the Cornish Celtic Way out of season in 2022, I didn’t paint but I wrote every day and the experience was profound. I think your video has given me the idea for my next long walk. Thank you so much, your videography is stunning.
Breathtaking Sarah! Thank you for sharing nature’s healing beauty with us.
Thank you so much! 😊
This is such a beautiful compilation. Thank you for sharing, Sarah. 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it!
More more and more! Beautiful job and well done. I enjoyed watching your journey and can not wait for your next one. Thank you
That was great pal. Your paintings and commentary were 1st class. Cheers.
beautiful artwork. love living vicariously, thanks.
I hope everyone remembers to click on ‘like’ ;)
Thank you for another wonderful video!
I'm just 2.22 mins into your video and I already love it and had to stop here to say I love your introduction to this video.
Thank you! I’m always trying to improve my editing and storytelling skills. It’s definitely a challenge 😅
Oh wow that’s another great travel video with tons of fun inspirational views to paint 🎨 or just enjoy!! Definitely a must see for the bucket 🪣 list. I really appreciate & enjoyed seeing your journey with this wonderful trip! Thanks for sharing this with us & giving us a little piece of joy for the day! 💕🥰
You would definitely love this section as an artist!
Thank you for putting this together for us. I'm so happy to see this little part of Scotland close to your home! I love geology and history so it's amazing to see and hear about the dinosaur footprints, fossils and caves.
I hope you're taking care!
I could easily make 10 videos just about the geology of this area 😅
Ahhhh I really do love Scotland. Would love to live there !
You know they say life is no fairytale,....but listening to the music in the background, thinking about your love story, your full time artist lifestyle, in Scotland navigating the coast, filming, and painting. I'm guessing there must be days you wake up and pinch yourself. It sounds magical. And I don't want that to sound unrealistic. I know like many of us you struggle with mental health, and life is well life. But gratitude can literally heal pain, trauma, and other emotional ailments. And your story is really quite lovely and dreamy. I experience joy in watching your journey.
I know it can seem that way when watching someone else’s life online. But remember we don’t share everything. Although I do share personal stuff in many of my vlogs, there’s also a lot I don’t go into because it’s just too painful or uncomfortable. But yes I do pinch myself when I remember where I am. Often times it feels surreal. I’ve actively made choices to seek beauty in life.
Your paintings are amazing, they really capture this beautiful coastline - one I know well 👍
Thank you so much 😀
Cool video (Lossie person here). Re: the mudflats at Culbin. You'll notice the dozens of poles sticking up from the ground. They're WW2 defences too - anti glider landing defences. For years I thought they were to do with fishing nets or something.
Interesting! I saw something similar on the beach near Burghead
I found it enjoyable to see all of the days put together into one video. Such an inspiring journey to see!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really enjoyed your walks and painting. Thank you.
This is outstanding cinematic experience my friend, you are really talented creator. Such a unique atmosphere 🔥🔥
Thanks a lot!
Loved your video Sarah...and love the Moray Coast too....thanks for sharing your experience...
Always so soothing to watch your videos - thank you!
just stunning
Thank you for your great video. I stay in moray myself. But i loved it. As im a horticulturist and photographer. I will look out for your video s. I wish you well.
Absolutely beautiful video Sarah, we just did a section of the trail, and it was actually a comment on my video that brought me to yours! And I'm glad they did :) What a wonderful coastline to call home.
Thank you! It's such a wonderful area to explore..then again it's hard to find a boring bit of coast in the highlands 😆
Glorious. Thank you so much.❤
Thank you Sarah for sharing your walking trip through such gorgeous landscapes! 💙
You are so welcome!
Loved how you put this all together in one video. Thanks, and I'm sharing this with my facebook buddies. Cheers!
Thanks very much!
absolutely loved the look back through this stretch of your journey! can't wait to see what you do next 😄
Thank you so much! I’m really excited for spring to get back onto the trail!
Lovely video. Beautifully filmed. I love the east coast. I was brought up more south in the Angus area. Lovely villages along the coast there too.
Scotlands coast is just so stunning! Pretty much everywhere I’ve gone I am fascinated by the colors and textures
So beautiful 😊
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for sharing
Scotland is Beautiful and calm
Thanks Sarah 😊 that was so awesome 👌 👏
Wow, I so enjoyed watching that Sarah. I am staying in Findhorn for a week in May and you have given me great ideas about where to go to paint!
Oh you will absolutely love it! And hopefully you'll get some nice weather :) either way it's gorgeous
Looking Forward the next spring hikes. You are great. Ive seen the Videos on your second channel. Want do watch them all the time. So great views. Thank you so much dear Sarah!!!!
Glad you like them!
How did I miss THIS! ✨🫶🏻✨
Thank you 💙
Wow! Thank you Sarah! So beautiful!…and solo! I’ll be watching this for lots of inspiration over and over again. Your work, photography, and sketching and painting, is just so fabulous! Thank You again, and may God bless your travels! 🎨🙏🏻🖌☘️
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!! It was an amazing way to get to know my county.
Lovely!!!
Your adventures are amazing!
I’m glad I found your channel!
Welcome!
This is wonderful!
Thank you Sarah for adding beauty and calmness to our day.
I recently watched your video and was curious about the book your brother bought for you called “Set in Stone”. I bought the book myself and I’m loving the read! It’s amazing to learn about the geological history of Scotland in it. I live near Mt. Rainier in Washington State, uSA..a 14,000 footer.. Glencoe ( one of your favorite spots) at one time was about 47,000 feet! Yikes!
Isn't it the most fascinating book?? I am in awe of the vast history and love seeing the evidence and layers of history when I hike especially on the coast.
Lovely video, a very good job!
A lot of tips on what to do and where to eat and last, but not least - tips in hiding. What to think of and it was nice to see all the natur You were goning through.
Thank you for showing us your beautiful part of the world. Its inspired me to travel where I live. ❤
Nice paintings
Thank you :)
I watched all the individual segments, but really enjoyed this overview also. Thank you
It’s nice to see the whole thing in one video!
Simply incredible.
You made my Sunday and I appreciate your efforts to share this.
I too would not venture to deep within the rocky caves without a partner in case of a twisted ankle. Takes time to find before tide returns.
Not sure you realize but you are opening viewers eyes to Scotland beauty.
I was scared of the cave collapsing or even just one big piece falling..I know the statistics are low but that would just be my luck! 🤣
Enjoyed going through your adventures again. Safety and common sense is so important. Your videos are great on the days I NEED A LIFT❤️
So glad they provide some inspiration or the ‘lift’ you need 🥰
So beautiful!!!
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Wow, what an amazing journey you had along the Moray Coast, Sarah! 🌊🚶♀🚴♀ It's so inspiring to see you breaking up the trail into small day trips and working towards your dream of walking, cycling or kayaking around the entire coast of Scotland and Islands 🏴🤩 Your video was so captivating and I loved seeing all the beautiful views along the way, especially the steep Cliffs 🌄👀🎨 It was also so cool to see the Castle and the fossils and pictish carvings in some of the caves! 🏰🦕🎨 Thank you for sharing all your behind the scenes and advice and tips for anybody who wants to try this in the future. I have subscribed to your channel and I can't wait to see more of your adventures! 😍🙌
Hey Sarah. Really enjoyed watching and sharing your adventure. As always I must say your cinematography is spectacular. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much! I’m really trying to improve my videography ☺️
Lovely to see the highlights of you hiking the coast all in one video! I’d love to visit Scotland and tour around to see/sketch the castles… and the coast.
A castle / ruins tour is another project on the horizon…ohh so many places to explore and such limited time 🙈
Magnificent! Thank you for sharing. Actually reminds me a lot of where I live on the Oregon Coast
This was incredible Sarah! Fabulous travelogue and tips!
Thanks so much!
Great wrap-up video of this leg of your journey. I enjoy your beautiful photography so much. Scotland, especially its coasts, is such an incredibly lovely country.
I felt it deserved some extra love because I spend so much time there 🥰
Moray Coast that is
Loved reliving this journey with you. Such a beautiful place. Thank you for putting it all together. It is like a mini vacation for me since we are in the middle of some arctic air these last two days. Was 15degrees below zero Fahrenheit this am. Sooo cold.
Oh gosh that sounds brutal!
@@sarahinscotland it was a bit. Somewhat unusual for central New England,USA. but started to warm up today. Got to 10degrees above today. Will be getting warmer as the week goes on. Luckily a short freeze.
@@karenjohnson6487 oh yea my dad is in upstate NY and he showed me the temps 🥶 yikes
Did you shoot the drone footage yourself as well? A very nicely put-together video, well done. I'm moving to Moray myself in a couple of weeks so I'm making notes... :)
btw if anyone wants to buy one of those beach huts at Findhorn, there's currently one up for sale, at a mere £27,500!
Yes, I do my own drone footage. I have the DJI mavic mini
THANKS A LOT FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL VIDEO! GREAT EDTING! And how is Vader? I hope that he is recovered! Do you have a video explaining how to paint shadows with watercolors?
Vader is doing better little by little 🥰
Aye, fit fine
Lol the second I stop watching Kraig Adams this pops up in my recommended
Honestly very different from his content and different from what I thought it’d be. You have your own style and it works!
Thank you!
What's the name of the song starting around 2:00? It sounds so beautiful 🙏
Bonnie Grace - My Soul Delights
@@sarahinscotland Thank you! Very fitting title:-)
Have you been to the Findhorn Foundation?
Yes, for a comedian performance.
How is Vader doing?
He’s doing OK. Not back to normal, although sometimes he almost seems so. Each day is different. The other day he wanted to play for hours and then slept the rest of the day. Today he was super lethargic and didn’t want to play at all. There’s still lingering symptoms, especially in his legs, but the bright side is I see little improvements each day. I think it might just be awhile before he is himself. I’m just happy he is still with us 🥰
@@sarahinscotland I am happy to hear that he is improving. I love seeing them in your videos.
