When I went to Scotland the first time I had never felt so happy in my entire life. I am Scottish-Australian, and felt like I had come home for the first time in my life. My Dad was from Glasgow, and my Mum’s Dad was from there too. Mum’s Mum was from Fife. I wish I was brave enough to move from Australia, because Scotland is where my heart is.

@@missyb9438 well, in most countries referring to your race would be unnecessary because nearly all countries with few exceptions, are racially homogeneous. Those countries where there are large swaths of racially diverse groups, there's a desire to reconnect to that history and identity. Meanwhile, in the US, we have a slurry of white races from around the world as well as a couple large cohorts from Latin America, Africa and Asia. And maybe that's because American is much more a destination than an origin. I understand wanting to live in America but i also understand wanting to know where your ancestors come from. If that sentiment is strange to you then i guess you've never left your little corner of your little island, huh?

Also, as someone who is fed up to the eyeballs with politics, I appreciate you keeping your channel free of politics, and just providing pure, wholesome entertainment and education. It's a rare commodity these days, and you have my gratitude.

My grandfather was from Limekilns, Fife and lived across from the Firth of Fourth. I went and visited in July when I was a teenager and swam in the water. I dove off the stone dock and tried to swim to my Uncle’s boat (he’d challenged me). I knew as soon as I hit the water I was in trouble. It was so cold I almost drowned. One of the stupid things you do as a youth and I realize how lucky I was to survive it. Someday I’d like to go back as an adult. My aunt and uncle have passed away. I have some distant cousins still there. Enjoy your new home!!

Shaun, I think perhaps you were confused by the phrase "bottle kiln." A bottle kiln doesn't have anything to do with bottles, only with the bottle shape of the kiln. They were used in firing ceramics and pottery. Bottle kilns fell out of use because they were horribly fuel-inefficient (as much as 90% of the fuel went up the flue as waste heat), and as soon as something better came along, potteries went over to it _en masse_ .

The flat looks amazing! Very cool & I can say for myself there is something about a sunrise/set on the beach with the waves crashing is SO soothing... Great job decorating, and we are looking forward to seeing more of Scotland with you. Especially if you are going to resume the Outlander review videos now that they are going to be starting filming the new season soon! Great to see you so happy!

With moving back from Brazil, I can’t help but wonder maybe if you’re no longer use to Scotland’s ‘warm’ weather lol.😎✌️ Ooh! Yes, please, more vids and info on Scotland. You have such a beautiful country.

Myself, my husband and his sister go sunrise swimming in the sea at Portobello at least 3 times a week. You should try it. Yes, it’s cold (around about 10 degrees C just now - October) but your body adjusts and it’s wonderful. The more you do it the better you’ll feel. And we love Portobello too. Welcome back home.
