Inspiration in concentrated form
If you travel by train over the River Tweed, close to the Scottish Border, then all the way up to the country’s most northerly railway station in Thurso, you will notice at least two things. One, that it really doesn’t take very long to traverse an entire country. And two, that in such a short time you get to hear a whole spectrum of Scottish accents. However, despite the changing lilts in the voices, the general sentiment will remain the same – people are consistently friendly and enthusiastic. And passionate about their country and their culture.
Scottish Highland Dancer A ticket collector could very easily quote you his favourite Burns poem. The young art student sitting next to you will gladly chat away about the latest football scores. The old lady drinking her flask of tea across the way will tell you all about how much she loves a good, high-paced ceilidh.

Edinburgh Fringe Festival on the Royal Mile
Scotland has produced a pretty high number of artists, writers, actors, musicians and dancers, so whether it’s dance, art, literature, theatre or even a little bit of opera that you want to experience – Scotland will most definitely have it. And the ever-spirited Scottish people will be more than happy to help in showing you how to best enjoy it.
