HIPPI GRACE TRAVEL TIPS - DISCOVER THE BEAUTIFUL SCOTLAND

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO SCOTLAND ? 

Hippi Grace goes to GLASGOW in the early spring

WITH INSPIRATION TO HARRY POTTER 

GLASGOW UNIVERSITY - ESTABLISHED 1458

What about a visit Glasgow and the West Coast of Scotland, just in time to see the snowflakes starting to bloom. We have both been students in this great city - some time ago. Now we where heading back to where we spent our fabulous student days. At the same time we decided to visit the west coast of Scotland and see one of the beautiful islands - Isle of Mull. 

Here is a travelling tip to a family trip or just a romantic rescue for a couple. We love travelling and finding smart travelling solutions on internet. 

We booked a low price ticket with Ryan Air to Edinburgh. Rented a car and drove to Glasgow. Had booked a flat to rent in the city centre, also at a fairly good price. Going back to Glasgow University - the 4th oldest university in UK, established in 1458. Stratchclyde University with its more modern history. 

IMAGINE THIS EXAME CHAIR WITH THE TIMER ON TOP..

Glasgow offers a great opportunity for shopping. Buchanan street, down to Argyle Street. Along with a number of other places to visit. Museums - art galleries - the Charles Rennie MackIntosh school of art - his house or the MackIntosh tearoom...  

AFTER GLASGOW WE HIT THE ROAD ...TOWARDS 

LOCH LOMOND

HIPPI GRACE TOKYO VISITING THE DROVERS INN

After a few days we hit the road and set off towards to LOCH LOMOND, driving through the beautiful landscape. You have to stop at the old Stone Pub - The Inverarnan Drovers Inn. Where the Norwegian students had some unforgettable parties during our Norwegian Student Weeks... 

Nothing had changed - except for everything getting older. Though hard to discover since the pub opened its doors in 1705 for people travelling up and down the banks of Loch Lomond. A pub that has bore witness to many of the most historic events in Scottish history. The pictures speak for itself - and absolutely worth a visit. 

THE PUB SIGN HAVE NOT BEEN CHANGED

YOU CAN FEEL THE HISTORY & GHOSTS

In the old atmosphere you can feel the history, eating delicious food. You can also stay overnight and maybe you will meet some of the ghosts who is visiting. 

IT IS OLD OUTSIDE & INSIDE - WITH IT'S OWN GHOST CAMERA

THE INTERIOR IS EXACTLY WHAT IT HAS  BEEN FOR MANY MANY YEARS 

HIPPI GRACE JUST LOVES HARRIS TWEED

When travelling the perfect combination is the Hippi Grace Tokyo which has the room for papers - documents - camera and extra lenses ++ Then Hippi Grace Barcelona with all the essentials when climbing in and out of the car is perfect. Suits your phone - wallet - keys - passport + some extra beauty details. This you can use as a crossover or just as a clutch. Always hanging on to your body. 

THE Journey continues to Isle of Mull in our next issue of the blog...
