All of the things you mentioned have been my experience as well. We live in Glasgow, which is even greener than Edinburgh. The greatest part of my experience here has been the Scots themselves: how inclusive and respectful they are with foreigners, how down-to-earth they are and how much they support underdogs: whatever oppresion is going in the world there will be a demonstration in Scotland to oppose that💙
So glad you loved Edinburgh and Scotland. I'm from Edinburgh and spent my first five years there. Miss it and hoping to move back to Scotland soon. Funny after living in England (which I do like) you realise how kind and friendly the Scots are and this above all is what I love about them
@@TheTruthAboutMigration Thank you for such a lovely video about Scotland. I was lucky enough to go to Budapest many years ago and it is a fascinating country which I would highly recommend.
Wow - makes me proud to be Scottish and a great compliment from a young lady from such a beautiful country as Hungary. You are very welcome to come and live here - the country would be much improved by your presence and positivity. ❤
Thank you very much John, especially for the kind words on my English. It's been in a slow decline since I moved to Belgium and started learning Dutch 😅
Why are you sure she had some, and why are you keen on them being highlighted? In my experience, most issues in Scotland are domestic, and revolve around football's unhealthy grip on the West, and problems with addiction/mental health which often get dismissed as criminal activity rather than illness. Scotland is by no means perfect, but inclusiveness is one of the great strengths of the country.
@@nebularain3338Inclusiveness?? You must be joking! Scotland is one of the most divisive countries on the planet. I have been threatened with violence simply because I come from the "wrong" place. I come from Edinburgh. In Glasgow that is virtually a crime. Coming from England is even more of a crime. I overheard a Glasgwegian say to an English guy in a pub "Are you from England? Well, finish your pint and f..k off south of the Border". Inclusive, my arse...
There's a law in place that prevents buildings in Edinburgh being above a certain height which has prevented highrise monstrosities taking over the skyline
I didn't know that! Thanks for sharing! Indeed it's great that they preserve those beautiful buildings instead of building these huge boring modern skyscrapers 😅
The weather isn't constantly cold! You just don't have the right clothes on. Really, freezing horizontal rain can be well good with the heavy weather gear on. Although goggles are recomended
No it isn't. It is cold, wet and windy with ugly grey buildings. The people are dour and unfriendly. The food is inedible. There is nothing to see or do.
You just can't help yourself can you? Always with the MO of SNPbaaaaad.. I lived in France and the Netherlands for the latter half of the 2010s and no one thinks that.

Scottish welfare IS better. This is largely because it is subsidised by taxpayers from London and the SE which amounts to close to £5,000 per taxpayer per annum - which is massive.
Oh dear, still brainwashed…..the reality is Scotland pays significantly more to the treasury than we get back in block grant to run our infrastructure. Canny Scots in our Parliament are just better at managing our meagre funds. We just need folk like you to wake up
@@johnfitzpatrick4007 1. We know that Scotland consumes more tax spend than it raises 'cos the SG tells us how much it was. £20Bn in the last tax year. 2.

Depends on how you measure green space but the most recent 'green mapping' puts E'burgh at 49% green space and G'gow at 32%.
@@Alan_MacThat’s purely because of Edinburgh’s ridiculously over extended boundaries!!

As a Scot,Scotland has contributed immensely to the World and we respect all cultures.
Scotland is amazing ❤️
She said that
Thanks for gracing Scotland with your presence! Best wishes from Edinburgh ❤

Thank you so much for your kind words, I would love to go back if it wasn't for Brexit and the cold weather 🥶 😊 Warm wishes from Belgium! ❤️
@@TheTruthAboutMigration well - you'll spread joy wherever you are - but come back and visit from time to time. Best of luck and happiness to you.
I love that you love my country. Nice to hear. Well done.
To be fair, who doesn't love Scotland? 😊 Such a fantastic country ❤️
@@TheTruthAboutMigrationgreat video
The botanical gardens. The jazz festival. The Pie MAN.
Glad to hear you had a nice time in Scotland. Your video was nicely edited, and you have a very good grasp of English. Take care....

Glad you enjoyed your stay in Scotland. 🏴🇭🇺👍
Greetings from me in Scotland!
Hey! Glasgow is greener. It’s called the Dear Green Place. A wee bit of Edinburgh Glasgow rivalrie for you. Love your video.
I love Glasgow too! It is so beautiful, indeed it's very green. I never lived there, but wish I could have ❤️
Thanks for doing this xx
Captions say 'Whiskey' - in Scotland it's spelled Whisky.
2:44 I believe that this view is looking East in Glencoe - some editing needed !
3:54 This looks as though it might be in Central Europe.
Thank you for your positive
comments.
Would you happen to have any negative experiences that you encountered?
I’m sure you had some!

Paperbacks 3 for a £ in Govan. One for a £ in Wemyss Bay. Moral of the story. Buy your 2nd. hand books in Govan.

Look at Paris. They only have 1 building like that and decided no more.

True that, I am also definitely not accustomed to it 😅
No such thing as bad weather in Scotland. ... Just the wrong clothing.
Edinburgh is the most beautiful city anywhere,anytime on Earth.
No it isn't. It is cold, wet and windy with ugly grey buildings. The people are dour and unfriendly. The food is inedible. There is nothing to see or do.
Actually, Arthur's Seat isnt an extinct volcano, it's a hill made out of volcanic rock.
It’s true: Scotland has tons of space to put loads of asylum seekers and other immigrants.Jolly good show chaps!
Nice to hear, but what if come there & meet you 😅
Scotland will be even better when we leave the UK.
It’ll be a poverty stricken backwater that will drown in its own stupidity if that ever happens. Which is of course exactly why it won’t.
oh yeah but unfortunately for you. you'll be pushing up the daisies by that time.😆
@@slewvianYep. OP = the SNP’s one and only supporter 🤣
Absolutely. It's just a question of when not if.

Actually, most people, when they hear the word Scotland, immediately think of voting for the nationalists all the time.
But don't.😀
