Took my last trip before I head back to the states yesterday. Went up to the small coastal town of North Berwick. I forgot my camera so all of my shots are from my iPhone.

Isle of Skye

This past weekend was deffinately the most beautiful and adventerous weekend in a while! Between cloudy, cold, rainy, trails the second day and walking thorugh impassible bogs. To hitchiking and finding the most beautiful beach Ive ever been too! To drinking some of the best whiskey in Scotland. To staying in a wigwam and hanging with good friends! Ill let the pictures show the rest!

Train ride was beyond beautiful the whole way there

Evening on the Craigs in Edinburgh

After a long day in class and working on projects we hiked up (and a small amount of climbing) to the craigs next to arthurs hill to see the sunset, which didn’t disappoint. Arthurs hill is a mindbogoling 4 min walk from my dorm!

Belfast, Northern Ireland

Got back from Belfast earlier today. Belfast definitely knows how to enjoy the night and the Irish country side and coast is some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Thanks for having me!

Off to Belfast on Friday Morning! Had to wake up at 4:30 am...

The wall that separates the Protestant Loyalists and the Irish catholics from violence that happens even to this day. Look up the “troubles” in Northern Ireland if you have never heard of it, it is very eye opening.

Belfast City Hall

Me near one of the many castles on the coast

The Irish Coast line, which is littered with many beaches, both rocky and sandy. This is on the Causeway Scenic Highway.

The Giants Causeway! All natural hexagonal rock formations.

Well, my iPhone 6 was stolen on the bus here in scotland, so thats slightly a bummer…

On Monday the 2nd of June a group of us traveled to Calendar, Scotland by train and bus to make it to the Trossachs. We climbed partially of Ben Ledi, one of the tallest mountains in the Tossachs. Fittingly Ben Ledi in Gaelic means “Mountain of God” and we were definitely at its mercy that day. With spotty heavy rain and gale force winds taking the temperatures pretty low!
