Your channel has become my absolute favorite. I'm watching your older videos I have not seen before. I think it could be a binge night with your channel. Janine you look so happy during this video. Your love of new sights is amazing. My heart was feeling your pain during the tasting. The burning feeling of the alcohol going down is something I can hardly stand. It really upset sets my heartburn. I was remembering my heartburn (the pain) while the both of you were drinking. It made me shudder. Lol. Can't wait to see your new home.
As a Scot I'm really loving all these videos. To be fair, I enjoy all your content, but this has a special place in my heart. Just wait till you hit the West Coast - it's so beautiful! As a West Coast gal I'll always be biased, but I'm sure you'll love it! X
Hi to both of you just found your channel and absolutely loving your journey I am disabled and don’t go out that much anymore so it is so wonderful to me to see all the places you go to I feel like I am travelling myself thanks and I am looking forward to all your future travels xxxx
Great video and tour of Scotland. Did you see the Loch Ness monster? or was she social distancing to protect himself or herself from COVID?😆 Inverness is where my mum comes from and good to see all the vegan food. You can't come to Scotland without going to a distillery since Scotland is famous for it's Whisky. Tain is up in the Highlands and no where near the North East Coast of Scotland because the North East Coast is Dundee up to Aberdeen and Orkney. Tain is more near North Central Coast of the Highlands.
I'm binge watching a lot of these. Maybe invest in a compass, you can then find sunrise and sunset East / West... maybe you can get an old quirky compass from a ship or something.
Single malt fan here. Often wondered if a really expensive version of any single malt justifies the price. Not sure I’d buy a whole bottle of the expensive nectar because, as you say, after a few sips you’re not going to taste the difference much, due to numb-tongue syndrome 😂 If I was a millionaire, maybe, but I’m not and unlikely to be, ever, so I’ll stick with the cheaper yet still wonderful single malts. Thanks for taking us along with you. Subbed. Maybe one day I’ll visit Scotland, the land of my ancestors, (McKenzies and Munros) again. 👍🏼🎉
@@ThoseHappyDays It is a shame they do it but apparently it's for safety reasons. I worked in a tourist info office for a few years and we had people coming in regularly who'd been told to move on in the middle of the night 😔
Just found your utube videos! What awesome videography, you're very talented and I love your real selves dynamic! You can spend a life time traveling America and still not see it all! What a beautiful world despite the insanity in Ukraine. Thanks for the distraction for a bit. Love from California!
"Doesn't count Janine, that's a bourbon." Hahaha I'm exactly the same with whiskey. Don't get it at all. But to each their own! I adore Scotland, glad you guys are enjoying it so far! x
I'm from Tain and now live in Inverness. Nice to see the scenery. Was totally confused the way Evanton was pronounced, had no idea where they ment until the signpost was shown. Glenmorangie is pronounced like orangie, always makes me cringe to here it said incorrectly lol
Haha understood! You get this everywhere you go. When we moved down south, there was one town in particular that us northerners pronounce different, just because that's how northerners would say it, but southerners hate it being mispronounced. In short, you can't win 😄
There are quite a few distilleries in the Highlands...however not all of them are open to visitors. You can see lots of seals along the water's edge near Cromarty bridge.
Ahhhh I'm LOVING your travel vlogs 😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️ My fav bit was the early rise at Loch Ness. I get the feeling that when the world returns to normal we will swap places. Re u will be vlogging in india and I will be vlogging in the uk. But I don't like staying in the uk for long so I will probs vlog Europe mostly wen I'm back on that continent but for now I'm loving india. 😁❤️😁❤️ Namaste and Blessings to both of u. Kas 🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️🕉️
Hi guys, did you make it to the top of Ben Nevis? If you're driving down through Northumberland via the A1 do Holy Island and Bamburgh beach is beautiful too, All the best and enjoy your adventure, Andy (the unvaccinated) from Newcastle 👍😊
Not much point heading back to Inverness to finish the loop. I'd recommend coming down the west side instead and over the bridge to isle of skye. You can get a cheap ferry back to mallaig on the mainland from south of skye or use the free bridge again. When you get further south in tyndrum the real food Cafe has vegan options. Enjoy your trip 😁🤔
@@bigteddy66 Not really a big deal is it, and yes I am local. No matter where you go, there are places and words that will be mispronounced......so what just let them enjoy our country without calling them out.
@@oldbootneck ye, but in my experience visiting different areas, when corrected for Mispronouncing something or somewhere, you then pronounce it the way you have been told. There is no Ck in Loch, that's all
Hi where you parked is in balintore not tain...i stay in tain and lived in the house next to the pub fir 14 years 😀...also please don't promote free parking up here in the Highlands we have a huge problem just now with campers wild camping and putting there human waste ect next to the roads and in parking places because the public toilets are closed.. stay safe
99% of public toilets seems to be open and functioning fine, in fact the majority of toilets so far charge 50p to use them...and they are everywhere, even in remote villages, all over the Nc500, most of the them are super clean too. This video was a pub park up, so the spaces outside the pub were part of the pub, so we believe. The landlord was happy for us to stay here, so long as we had refreshments in the pub, which we did (and a meal). We mention in the video that we were in Fearn, not Tain. But the destination that day was Tain? Apologies though if the place is called Baltinore and not Fearn, the sign said Fearn for the village, which is why we put that on our map graphic
@@ThoseHappyDays its the fact the video thumb nail says free camping in Loch Ness...don't get me wrong I'm more than happy people come here but onnthe last year its been terrible the amount of human waste as iv said is disgusting infact only last week there was an incident at Dornoch bridge where the police caught a camper emptying there chemical toilets in a passing place..I'm am local farmer in tain and since covid it has been an absolute nightmare...inhave even had campers break in tonmy land and use it as their own personal toilet and also have a fire that they didn't put out that then spread and took out just under 2 acres(30 thousand pounds worth of land)which comes out of my pocket..I'm not saying everyone is the same but please don't advertise free caminping/Park up places in your videos as it's causing a huge problem for us up here...if you are passing tain again please feel free to let me know and I will meet you with some organic goodies and buy you a pint..

you BOTH need to learn some adjective intead of 'Sooo'.....good and 'Soooo'.....nice and 'Sooo.........hungry etc. You can also drop overusing the word 'literally' if your going to do a vlog.

Can't beat a recommendation from a true Scot, thank you 😘
Be careful Liam, you mentioned you were below the limit after your wee tipple but we have a zero-tolerance on booze!!, be careful young man😉
So nice seeing some of my southern brothers/sisters enjoying what we here have for free!…, scenery, people, food/drink, thanks for promoting 👍🏴
It's a wonderful country, with wonderful people, the pleasure was ours 💚
Wow a park up next to Loch Ness🤩 how great is that! Yet another one on my bucket list😁🦕 Now thanks to you I've already "been there" once!

Haha, that was a major 'oops' moment 😱
Brilliant video, can’t wait for next one. X 🥰

Thanks for watching dude 🙏
Catching up on the NC500 videos and they are ace guys! X
Great video, Lock Ness is really picturesque. I think I will agree with Janine, I wouldn't buy any whiskey. excellent video guys.
🤣🚐
You are both living the dream.
Thank-you Julie 💚

Love your videos, exploring the UK
Thank you Fergus 💚
Great video guys. I loved all the amazing parkup places around loch ness. Next time I won't be booking a site! 👍
Hey! Thank you! Yeah there is little need to campsite in Scotland in our opinion, but campsites do have their advantages too I guess 💚
@@ThoseHappyDays yep, every 3rd day for me for a proper hot shower! 😁
I don't like the taste of liquor in general, so I laughed when I Janine made that face. And then Liam with, "Oh sugar!!!" Funny, Funny video.
😄😄😄😄
Stunning scenary 😆 i would be the same with the whisky i wouldn't know the difference xx
Hahaha best avoid the £40 a dram stuff then
Very pretty 👍😃👍
💚🚐
Absolutely lovely!
💕💕💕
Should have went to the alleycat in Inverness, it's a vegan cafe. They do lots of Scottish vegan food !
We wanted to, unfortunately it was closed when we were there x
Hi guys great video it's my home in kildary North of tain 😊👍❤️
You are very lucky to live in such a wonderful place 🇬🇧

Noted. Thank you 🧡

She's a one isn't she?! Haha
@@ThoseHappyDays jack daniels isn’t a bourbon, it’s a Tennessee whisky
Cool video but you have the pub location listed as Tain, the pub is in Balintore.
We thought the pub was called Baltinore "The Baltinore Inn" and the village had a sign saying Tain. We thought Tain was the general area...
I'm from Tain and now live in Inverness. Nice to see the scenery. Was totally confused the way Evanton was pronounced, had no idea where they ment until the signpost was shown. Glenmorangie is pronounced like orangie, always makes me cringe to here it said incorrectly lol
Haha understood! You get this everywhere you go. When we moved down south, there was one town in particular that us northerners pronounce different, just because that's how northerners would say it, but southerners hate it being mispronounced.
In short, you can't win 😄
Haha I'm from Conon Bridge and I laughed when I heard them say Evanton 😂 I laugh hearing people trying to pronounce Scottish places
You should try and pronounce Avoch!
I live in Evanton, and that pronunciation! It's Evan-ton not E-van-ton.
@@murdogordon3091 haha I was thinking that as well be quite funny
There are quite a few distilleries in the Highlands...however not all of them are open to visitors.
You can see lots of seals along the water's edge near Cromarty bridge.
I'm a new subscriber absolutely love you guys x
Fab Liam much better than off the shelf
🙏🚐
Can't believe you didn't get the chance to go on the boat on lockness the water is black spooky x
That is spooky 👻
I believe its the peat and you see the wild mountain goats ,sorry but you need to go back,loving your easy vegan cooking .
How funny was the whisky tasting 😂
🥳🤪
Hi both :) I don't suppose you have a 'three word' location for that park up by Lock Ness or a postcode, thanks x
Ahhhh I'm LOVING your travel vlogs 😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️😁❤️

👍👍👍
Drink driving? Can't do that in Scotland ma friend 😂
It was below the limit in England, literally just a couple of sips. Didn't know you can't even have a swig in Scotland and drive after
Hi! Where's your "nothing changes if nobody changes" hoody from please?
It's from Good Hemp, made from recycled waste 😊
Evanton - pronounced E, as in Egg, with stress on the first sylable, and the A and O are almost silent - 'E-v'nt'n.
If only they had that on the sign on the way in, we would have been alright. At least we know now for next time, won't get it wrong again...promise
The English always mispronounce the Scottish word 'loch' 🤣
Go to tanhill pub, England. Highest pub in Britain
You wont miss loch ness, its over 40 miles long. Weather nessie will put in an apearance is another matter.
Hi guys, did you make it to the top of Ben Nevis?
If you're driving down through Northumberland via the A1 do Holy Island and Bamburgh beach is beautiful too,

Scotland looks stunning.:)

Ooo cool, will take a look thank you
You're missus is quality she cracks me up
Thank you, will let her know x
We are in process of having to move in a van cos of are dogs but not just that we are not very social but cant wait and my missus is veggie aswell
I think it's cup and cone ? (As in ice cream cone)
Haha yes, realised that after it was published and made sure the description mirrored the actual name. Nice cafe
hate to be a party pooper but zero tolerance in Scotland 🏴 on drink drinking be careful peeps
Ah really?
@@ThoseHappyDays yes worked in Scotland for a few year laws are different they catch a lot of people out
Stay safe peeps 👍🏴
Did you download the nc500 app? Are you going clockwise or anti clockwise?
