A Wee Scottish Vacation Inwards The Highlands

Since losing my dad concluding month, I’ve been struggling amongst a lot of dissimilar emotions. I wasn’t feeling the Christmas spirit, but I didn’t desire to pass the holidays past times ourselves either.

Fortunately, our dearest friends inward Scotland invited us upwards to pass Christmas amongst them inward the Scottish Highlands. Perhaps you lot shout out back my concluding see hither when I was hand-feeding reindeer inward the Cairngorms National Park?

When you lot alive far away from family, your friends larn similar your family. Living every bit an expat for the past times 8 years has taught me that you lot tin ever rely on your friends - your skilful friends. True friends don’t estimate you. They give you lot a shoulder to proper name on when you lot demand it in addition to give you lot a drinking glass of vino (or 2 or fifty-fifty three) to cheer you lot up. That’s what I needed this Christmas season.

We spent 3 nights cooking, eating, drinking, sitting some a warm fireplace, taking long hikes in addition to talking amongst our friends – surrounded past times the rugged Scottish Highlands. It was a relaxing wee suspension later I had only worked half dozen days inward a row. And absolutely what I needed!

I’ll closed this yr amongst some photos from a beautiful business office of Scotland. Here’s hoping that 2019 is a happier in addition to healthier yr than 2018 ended upwards being.

Happy New Year!
