  • Summer 2020 postponed to 2021

    In a few days I was supposed to start this year’s summer in Scotland – 6 weeks on Shetland, Orkney, Ullapool, Lewis and Harris, Skye and then slowly back home via Edinburgh.

    But like many other travellers this year I had to postpone to next year. Luckily I was able to change most of the dates of my booked Airbnbs to next year and only had to cancel two as my plans will slightly change. I added a week in Assynt, just had to after going over my pictures from last year.

    Speaking of last year, the post about Urquhart Castle was the last one from My British Summer 2019. It would have been perfect timing to start now with my next journey, but I´ll find some other things and stories to fill the time until I´ll be back in Scotland.

    People are back in Vienna, even though there are still way fewer tourists than usual at this time and I´ve been lucky with the summer so far. May & June have been quite old-fashioned right on the average temperature and no big heat waves so far.

    I´ll be exploring some bits and pieces in Vienna, will spend a few days in Gars am Kamp and will see what else turns up. After being away from Vienna for the last three summers it might be quite nice to be here this year.

    Wherever you are, have an amazing summer and be a tourist in your home!

  • Summer 2020

    2019 is (slowly) coming to an end and while I still in the middle of posting all the images from this summer in Scotland, I´m also already planning my next Scottish Summer Escape!

    In summer 2020 I will explore the Scottish isles starting in Shetland and then Orkney. A little stop on the mainland around Ullapool (and or Inverness?) and the then on to Lewis and Harris.

    From the Outer Hebrides, I will probably go to the Inner Hebrides and then we´ll see if there will be any time left or if I will have to go back to Vienna and the summer is going to be over.

    Even so, it´s still about 6 months to go I´m already pretty excited and am reading novels and thrillers set on the islands and am planning my tour from places to stay and places to visit and much more.
