Edinburgh: The City I Dream of Calling Home
Some places you visit. Others make you imagine an entirely different life.
Personally considered travel, experiences, and places worth remembering.
More than a city break
I’ve traveled to some incredible places, but there is something about Edinburgh that keeps pulling me back.
It’s the kind of city where you can wander down a beautiful old street, turn a corner, and feel like you’ve stepped into another century. The architecture, the history, the atmosphere—there’s something about it all that feels different.
And while I love discovering new destinations, Edinburgh is one of those rare places where I don’t just think about coming back for another vacation. I think about what it would be like to call it home.
Why it belongs on a Scotland itinerary
Edinburgh makes a wonderful beginning or end to a trip through Scotland. I love the idea of balancing its rich city atmosphere with time in the Highlands, in a smaller coastal town, or on the golf courses around St Andrews.
One day, I hope to retire here. Until then, I’ll keep finding reasons to return, explore a little more, and fall in love with it all over again.
