What to see and do in 2018?
So I’m trying to beat the dreaded January blues by daydreaming of new places to see in Scotland and pass the dark nights by planning new things but I’m wondering what your favourite things to do or see in Scotland are?
What has been your favourite experience or thing to do in Scotland so far?
I have been lucky to visit a couple of the islands (Mull, Rum, Lewis and Harris) and travelled a lot of the mainland.. but have you got a particular favourite place to visit, road to drive, mountain to climb or even little cafe to have a coffee and relax at.. I would love to hear some of your thoughts..

I guess the mid winter blues got to me pretty hard. I'm wanting to brag about it.. and encourage people to go.. but I know Islay isn't for everyone.
This year, I am hoping to do more beach combing on Harris outside of my many Edinburgh visits.

Two days wasn't really enough heck it was barely enough for a laid back overview of Islay, a day up north and a day in the south.
It still confounds me a little that you can go directly to Jura at times without going via Port Askaig. I do know there is a summer ferry from the mainland.
I am planning on making it over to Jura this go around, we will have the time.
The ever-changing coastline is rugged and peaceful with the sounds of nature. Every day was either rain in the morning, sunshine in the afternoon or vice versa!
A few nice days below

Last year, there was great Scottish acts aplenty with The View, Twin Atlantic, Biffy Clyro and Vistas all playing.
This year, you could have the chance to see CHVRCHES, Franz Ferdinand and Gerry Cinnamon among other great acts such as The Killers, Liam Gallagher and Wolf Alice!

Favourite place? Hmmmmmm..... I do love Mull for watching the wildlife.
This year on my "Must visit" list is the Moray coastline. I have spent a few days up there for working but not exploring.
If you are up Peterhead way and fancy something a bit different, the Peterhead Prison Museum is a cracking place to visit.

Mull is one of my favourite spots to visit, I do a lot of work with the white tail eagles there and love all the other wildlife on the island!
I must try and get back up the north east coast a little more this year, I grew up near Aberdeen and sometimes forget all the gems that part of Scotland has to offer
