Welcome back everyone! This time around, I boarded a train towards Inverness, the capital city of the Highlands. Inverness is actually one of seven cities in Scotland and is Scotland's most northern city. I then continued my train for 360 miles from Inverness to the northernmost train station in the UK, Thurso. This scenic Far North Line journey took me along the northeast coast of Scotland, along towns and villages, lochs and castles. I then took another ferry crossing the Pentland Firth, a strait lying between mainland Scotland and the Orkney archipelago, which has some of the fastest tides in the world. The ferry was heading towards Stromness, where the coast of Norway is closer than London.
When I did this journey a number of years ago, when I was ready to leave Orkney to travel back south, I took the bus instead of the train. That gave me a slightly different view out of the windows, still lovely. Again I am enjoying your video!
@@SyifaAdriana I love your vlog and the videos are crystal clear and very well done. I am happy to support you and your travels. If I can, I will give more. I loved The UK series and the trains through northern Europe was so fun. Stay safe and take care. I watch one or two of your videos every night before bed.
That was a very interesting journey to places that many people in UK have never been. Syifa's style of presenting is top class and makes this just as interesting and unique as Bald's travels
Hi, Syifa. I recently stumbled across your video series as you tour Scotland and was struck by your genuine appreciation for my beautiful wee home country. I especially liked that you have travelled in a non-typical touristy fashion, taking in remote and virtually unknown areas for many. You produce a very soothing channel and it holds the intellectual appeal missing in all too many of the young influencer age. I will be an avid follower from here on & hope we see you back here soon. Terima kasih x
Currently, I'm staying at Aberdeen for my study. I have been thinking of visiting Orkney, but, after watching this vlog I'm feeling like I should set off tomorrow; it is such fascinating. Thank you for this vlog. Wishing you best wishes for more thrilling vlogs. Cheers!!
I lived in Shetland for over seven years on the most northerly inhabited island in the UK, Unst. I recommend you visit Shetland, it feels more Scandinavian than Orkney.
Hi Syifa, this is the first video I've seen of yours , I really enjoyed it to be honest with your travel from Inverness to Orkney, we'll presented, Scotland is a beautiful nation with lots on offer so much to see , I live in Cardiff, but I have friends in Glasgow, but when I visit my friends in Glasgow, I usually go to Edinburgh, and up north to as I love the Highlands, I am scottish born ,but love it there and the people
The sceneries are absolutely stunning. Feeling the stress with figuring out the transports and sea sickness. Love your honesty and sharing your raw feelings ❤️
Full of captivating scenes of the north of Scotland. Another vlog that deserves a great appreciation. It's magnificent! I've enjoyed it so much. Best of luck to you, Syifa!
We took a school trip up to orkney from one of the villages you passed through after inverness.. yeah, in my memory, there were 150 puking kids. Vomit everywhere. Best to sit on the outside decks i think.
It's so lovely to see you enjoying the UK! I think other Brits will agree that seeing it through your eyes actually helps us to appreciate the beauty that's right on our doorstep :)
Thank you very much Syifa for this wonderful video and beautiful presentation. The train ride was great having such a beautiful view such diverse nature. I like it I really like the video, very nicely edited, the thumbnail is so beautiful and the music chosen is great. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video with us, with respect and lots of love.
Beautifully done. Your long shots and smooth transitions really helped me feel like I came along on your journey. Great drone work as well! Instant follow.
Dear Syifa, I have journeyed with you since Yinchuan, China. You have grown to become a beautiful woman. I am so very happy for you in your new life. Stay safe, stay happy. 🤩🤓
A lovely video, however I’m really surprised you never visited the capital of Orkney called Kirkwall which has the most beautiful town centre, historic buildings and an ancient cathedral. There is a direct connecting bus from the ferry terminal to Kirkwall and it’s timed with the ferry times.
Thank you Walter! I had a very strict schedule and had to keep moving as I was using travel pass and had a wedding of my brother in law in Berdfordshire to attend to. Thank you for your comment!
Love this! I've followed your videos since probably the Nepal series, and it's so strange/fun see you in familiar places - I've just spent a month in Orkney this summer, I'm normally based in the Central Belt of Scotland. Orkney is so nice, friendly and safe! It's a shame you didn't explore it more, there is so much history and they have tiny planes flying between the islands as basically their bus service. Very fun experience. But the NorthLink ferry is no joke, it can be super rough 🤢🛳️
Agáta Strunzová thank you so much for your comment. That's very kind of you to still support me till this day. Yes I had a very limited time as there was a family wedding to attend to down south in Bedfordshire. Thanks again for commenting!
Great videos! Nice quality and personal touch. Enjoy your positive attitude and outlook - certainly useful when wandering in cold/wet Scotland! The UK needs more people like you and less complainers, love it :)
A lovely little video with a very sympathetic narrative. I commute regularly by road and ferry to Sromness and you got the feel of the journey very well. Thank you. Rmb
Wonderful place my dear, enjoy and be thankful because your difficulties on traveling was paid off by kind people and fantastic view...💞 keep safe as you traveling👍
Yet another great honest video, dear Syifa. I admire your enthusiasm, "looking forward to this ferry, and then being seasick again." haha, but as you said wisely, it is from the whole experience that we can grow.
Hello Shifa, your videos is very inspirational for many people who admires to discover the beauty of the world. I'm so fascinating to see the serenity of nature and it can give us joy inside our heart. Through your journey we learned a lot thank you💗
Again what beautiful way to show Scotland I stay in Central Scotland near Edinburgh, but does make me want to stay up in Highlands. Thanks for coming to Scotland, best wishes x
Hope you got the chance to spend more time in Thurso on the way back, it's a beautiful town. Best 'trick' for reducing sea sickness is to try and stay as close to the sea level, in the centre of the boat as possible - learned that on the ferry to Islay - you'll need to try that! Great video and music, really well put together - you've got a new subscriber!
The experience of traveling and using trains and various means of roaming in the United Kingdom is a beautiful and exciting experience, as well as getting to know the regions, people and residents that add new information to your knowledge balance, thanks for sharing..
I like so many others absolutely enjoyed this video of your journey through the northern UK. I applaud your choice of music to score the video. Pleasant travels the rest of your way.
Hello Adriana. I was also in Thurso last August. I really liked these fantastic places where it's just you and nature. Unfortunately I haven't been to the islands, but I think it's even more wonderful there than in Thurso. It was an unforgettable trip and I was most impressed by the landscapes. It's very pleasant to see when someone else goes through those places where you have been too. Very nice.
We visited the Orkney Islands along with Edinburgh in Oct 2017 for our honeymoon. I stumbled across your video reminiscing about our trip and it was very nice to see how you travel by ferry to the islands (we flew instead). So sorry about the seasickness!
So glad you had a good trip to Orkney and what a way to travel letting the train and ferry get you there. We had a lovely time in Inverness but have never been to the Orkney Isle so thanks for sharing your documented trip. Safe travels Simon and Beth 💚 🙋👋
I find that I get less sea sick if I travel back to Orkney on the Alfred (Pentland ferry). It departs from Gills Bay and docks at St Margaret’s Hope. Thanks for posting!
I enjoyed this as a resident of Orkney for 15 years. It is a shame you suffered from seasickness, if you ever return to Orkney you can always fly. There is so much more to see, you could stay for a week and not see it all.
Really lovely vid. I've sailed from Thurso to Stromness several times and have been sick about half the time. You sail through the Pentland Firth whose tidal currents are among the fastest in the world so even on calm days the movement of the boat need not be smooth.
Lovely video… take care your health… wish u great day ahead and have more and more energy to survey beautiful places and people and their culture and waiting for another amazing video….
Hi there. I'm a new subscriber. I stumbled on to your channel and love your presentation. Just a wee bit of advice if you're prone to seasickness. Always Always sit yourself between midway and stern of the ferry. The motion is less. Also take ginger in tablet form or crystallized available from supermarkets. Ginger is a natural remedy which helps prevent motion sickness. Additionally swallow the tablet with carbonated water. The CO2 helps as well. Ginger has been used for 200-300 years I believe. But....take the tablets at least an hour "before" you travel as it gives your body time to adjust. The additional benefits of ginger, is that it's safe to drive, with it in your system, as it won't leave you feeling drowsy, like the chemical stuff available. Until next time, take care.
Uhh thank you so much for this comment!! Sorry for interrupting this comment, Syifa. I intentionally read every comment to search information about mitigating seasickness since in many times I also had this problem and it makes me a bit afraid to travel with boat or ferries. Thank you Bryan, I am happy to find this information, I will get ginger with me next time I travel by ferries.
@@guacamolebelacan8094 glad to help. Nothing new in what I've just said...generally it takes 3-4 days to get your "sealegs." But you don't have that time available on a ferry. Atb.
@@bryanbadger6841 Bryan, that's very kind of you to take the time to watch and comment. Thanks for your advice! I actually was lying down on one of the seats midway of the ferry as sitting down wasn't really an option for my seasickness 😂😂 I like drinking ginger with honey at home but I'll try to look for the ginger tablets you mentioned. Thanks a lot!
Очень смелая девушка, показывает всё как есть на самом деле. Сколько же у неё терпения и мужества, совершать эти путешествия. Если честно, я бы так не смог. Давно смотрю её видео, а решился написать впервые. Очень хотелось бы, чтобы она немного по дольше задерживалась в подобных местах, чтобы показать как можно больше всякого разного. 🤔😊🤩
Большое спасибо за ваш прекрасный комментарий! Мне очень понравилось их читать :-) Я надеюсь снять что-то другое для следующей серии о путешествиях. Пожелай мне удачи!
Many good days wet days and harsh wet winter ones in the Far North West when I was at Aberdeen University.Field trips and archeology serious walks on mountains ( munros) trout fishing camping ..even a swim in the sea....in April!!!
Syifa. If you ever get a seasickness feeling again, perhaps take some neat ginger lumps. This should stabilize your stomach. If the weather is better, best to stay on deck (not below deck) while travelling. Good luck.
Thank you for your comment, Timon! I did stay on deck for a few minutes and the sea sickness was so bad I had to get inside and lie down throughout the crossing. 🥲
A very enjoyable, honest and visually appealing video. Perhaps you do not know about that there is medication available that reduces the severity of sea sickness, if you take it at least an hour before your ferry or boat journey. Before you board your next ferry, you may ask for it at a local pharmacy. Usually no prescription is required.
Peter, thanks a lot for your kind comment! Yes I know that there's a seasickness tablet but since I travel alone, I need to rely on myself in being vigilant. The tablet would make me sleepy and make me drowsy so I avoided it 😂
@@SyifaAdriana It is me rather than you who owes the other a big thank you. Your videos are a pleasure to watch, especially because they are honest. As for the vigilance, I understand your cautiousness, but funnily enough Britain is one of the few countries in the world where you can safely fall asleep on a train, bus of ferry. I used to live in Britain for five years, that is why I know this. People leave their luggages at the end of a long distance train coach and walk ahead 50 m to the other end of the coach, turning their backs to them for 5 hours, without worrying about them. Thefts on ferries and trains and buses are very rare. As long as you keep your documents and money close to your body, you can safely fall asleep. Take care: Peter
@@peterjeager4083 Hehehe thanks Peter! I usually am vigilant because I also have to film things while traveling as that's my main job. Yes you are correct, Peter that the UK is relatively safe and easy to travel for solo travellers. I carry lots of camera equipment and felt safe leaving it inside of the train while being outside filming. Where do you live now if not the UK?
@@SyifaAdriana It is very kind of you to enqire about my whereabouts. I live in Hungary, as I am a native Hungarian. But those 5 years in Britain have left a deep imprint on my soul. Britain has a unique feel to it which cannot be put into words. It is in the air and in the soil and in the rocks and in the way people behave; and the more you live there, the more intense this feeling becomes. It penetrates into your inner being, and when you finally return to your home country, you have a strange, fuzzy feeling that something is missing, without being able to grasp what it is. When I returned home I thought I would get over it, but I have not. It is a kind of addiction, which you will never recover from. Best wishes: Peter
@@peterjeager4083 That's fantastic! I wish I have a stronger passport so that I can go to Hungary without applying for a Schengen visa. Thanks for your reply, Peter!
Exotic Orkney. We were there last week, staying in Stromness. We managed to capture a few of the many places we visited on Orkney. I can't help but feel you missed the most exotic parts.
Im half Scottish and if you want to explore a lot of Scotland then you have to get your sea legs. Spent 4 weeks doing that as a teenager years ago and loved ever minute of it.

A job well done! I love to see your video about Scotland. Carry on with this good venture. Take care
Aw thanks so much David, I have one more video from my Scotland travel series.
For the seasickness stay outside and keep your eye on the horizon. I traveled from John O'groats to Kirkwall. I just loved it.

Thank you Yvain! I didnt explore Orkneys as I would want to but hopefully you'll have a good time :)

Syifa. If you ever get a seasickness feeling again, perhaps take some neat ginger lumps. This should stabilize your stomach. If the weather is better, best to stay on deck (not below deck) while travelling. Good luck.
Thank you for your comment, Timon! I did stay on deck for a few minutes and the sea sickness was so bad I had to get inside and lie down throughout the crossing. 🥲
Very well shot
I was thinking where have you been and RUclips showed me this video in my home page after this long time.
The places where u visited is wonderful very excited😍
Nice journey in North Scotland and getting the most northern train station in Scotland
I enjoy your video
A very enjoyable, honest and visually appealing video. Perhaps you do not know about that there is medication available that reduces the severity of sea sickness, if you take it at least an hour before your ferry or boat journey. Before you board your next ferry, you may ask for it at a local pharmacy. Usually no prescription is required.
Peter, thanks a lot for your kind comment! Yes I know that there's a seasickness tablet but since I travel alone, I need to rely on myself in being vigilant. The tablet would make me sleepy and make me drowsy so I avoided it 😂
@@SyifaAdriana It is me rather than you who owes the other a big thank you. Your videos are a pleasure to watch, especially because they are honest. As for the vigilance, I understand your cautiousness, but funnily enough Britain is one of the few countries in the world where you can safely fall asleep on a train, bus of ferry. I used to live in Britain for five years, that is why I know this. People leave their luggages at the end of a long distance train coach and walk ahead 50 m to the other end of the coach, turning their backs to them for 5 hours, without worrying about them. Thefts on ferries and trains and buses are very rare. As long as you keep your documents and money close to your body, you can safely fall asleep. Take care: Peter
@@peterjeager4083 Hehehe thanks Peter! I usually am vigilant because I also have to film things while traveling as that's my main job. Yes you are correct, Peter that the UK is relatively safe and easy to travel for solo travellers. I carry lots of camera equipment and felt safe leaving it inside of the train while being outside filming. Where do you live now if not the UK?
@@SyifaAdriana It is very kind of you to enqire about my whereabouts. I live in Hungary, as I am a native Hungarian. But those 5 years in Britain have left a deep imprint on my soul. Britain has a unique feel to it which cannot be put into words. It is in the air and in the soil and in the rocks and in the way people behave; and the more you live there, the more intense this feeling becomes. It penetrates into your inner being, and when you finally return to your home country, you have a strange, fuzzy feeling that something is missing, without being able to grasp what it is. When I returned home I thought I would get over it, but I have not. It is a kind of addiction, which you will never recover from. Best wishes: Peter
@@peterjeager4083 That's fantastic! I wish I have a stronger passport so that I can go to Hungary without applying for a Schengen visa. Thanks for your reply, Peter!
Many thanks for this wonderful scenes, from iran.
I really like your videos the sight is amazing I like to visit there😍😍😍😍😍
Exotic Orkney. We were there last week, staying in Stromness. We managed to capture a few of the many places we visited on Orkney. I can't help but feel you missed the most exotic parts.
Im half Scottish and if you want to explore a lot of Scotland then you have to get your sea legs. Spent 4 weeks doing that as a teenager years ago and loved ever minute of it.
I hope you got to spend enough time in the Orkney Islands to travel around them and see the remarkable sights there.
