I did go to Loch Lomond, it was beautiful! And yes, I have a feeling there will be a lot of Scotland in my future.

Don’t be too sad about it, we found it pretty underwhelming. Our favorite Loch is Loch Lomond, did you go there? Also loved Loch Shiel, not sure if you got to visit it. But Scotland is one of these places that you can always go back to 🙂

Well I believe the drink measuring is due to the Scottish inclination to, ahem, overdrink. But seriously, if you tip a bartender in NYC well the first time, the second drink can knock you on your feet!

Seriously though, Scotland seems like a blast. If only do purchase over-priced cow hats and eat anything Canterbury!

I never knew you traveled there! I’ll have to get the inside scoop of your trip from you someday 🙂

Thank you so much Taylor! Maybe you should start planning your own post grad adventure 🙂 (and don’t tell your mom I said that!)

I’m glad you’ve been enjoying them! No worries though, new destinations loom!

Now that is a tricky question. (And I love Asia too!) I think for a shorter jaunt, where you targeted what was most important to see and made the most of your time (a lot of my time was taken up doing non tourist stuff the average traveler wouldn’t be doing, less they too start dating a Scotsman!) it is absolutely worth it. But there will be no more long term Europe trips for me for a while now. When I do go next, I’ll make it a bit shorter, prioritize, set aside the money and just enjoy myself and not stress about my bank account!

Truth be told I’m a meat eater through and through, but I just might have to check out this vegetarian haggis next time I’m in town!
