Funny thing is, it really does smell like insect repellant. How anyone would choose to use it as a normal beauty product escapes me... but it sure does help keep the midgies off.

If you are into taking photos of trees, you'll not go wrong in Dumfries and Galloway.
Personally, I prefer the more rugged, mountainous parts of Scotland. My favourites include Tayside & surrounds - Glen Lyon is amazing. Anywhere north of Fort William - on the way, make sure you drive over Rannoch Moor and down Glen Coe. If you ever get up towards Inverness, go and visit Glen Affric and definitely Glen Strathfarrar. A trip from Ullapool northwards to Durness is fantastic - make sure you take lots of memory cards and batteries!!!

Scotland packs an awful lot into a relatively small space.

This for me is very hard on where to go for the most beautiful landscapes are I know that Scotland is full of them that’s what’s making it hard.
Oh the landscapes have got to been well out of the way from any people at all.
