    A total comfort watch! A cozy day book shopping, having a treat at a cafe and then heading home to cuddle your new books really is the best so this was an absolute joy to watch 🙂

    When I had a three weeks solo tour of Scotland , Orkney was definitely my favourite place. There's something about its landscape, wildlife and vibe that really fascinated me. Everytime I watch your videos I always think about that Scottish holiday and the stunning places I saw. Grateful to you for that. 💜

    Joy to be glimpsing Inverness again but I was sending warm thoughts as I am in a sunny seaside town in Australia, with a fresh breeze blowing in and my washing on the line and a clean house. I recognised a few of those spots from our 4 days in Inverness in 2019. We loved it! I also had a win last week at a charity shop with 4 vintage books and one called The Little White Horse by Elizabeth Goudge was part of my treasure haul. My granddaughter Iris and I love op shopping and the library equally! It was lovely to see one of your vlogs again.

    I read a few of the book you’ve recommended. Really liked the Ghost woods and the Bookseller of Inverness! If there is anyone from GERMANY🇩🇪 here, I resell the books (on Kleinanzeigen) once I read them as I don’t want to accumulate too many books and I also think thrifting books is more suistainable especially when the book prices have gone up due to the lack of paper/ trees!
    Made the same mistake with the weather. One day it’s warmer and then it’s freezing cold again!
