  • Day Three on The Easy Highland Way
    It got emotional. Deep down I was ready to quit.
    Fersit to Laggan
    I am not sure why the video quality seems a little different on this one. Maybe I was trying to rush at points so filming wasn't as smooth. Either way I hope you enjoy. I think a return to Laggan and the little beach is needed.

    You're showing genuine emotions on trail which is very brave. I don't subscribe or watch many other walking channels because I find them all annoying with their constant fake happy trails bs which tells me they are not real long distance walkers/backpackers because no one is happy or enjoys every mile of any trail. Years ago I used to go snowboarding in the Cairngorms in May so it can get quite cold up there in April!

      I honestly don't think I could be all smiles the whole way if it wasn't how I was feeling. Really appreciate the positive feedback on this.
      Despite it being cold I was glad the weather was otherwise kind to me. I would love to do a proper snow camp one time but definitely would need to upgrade some gear.

    Thank you for making these videos, your honesty is a strength. I identify with the rollercoaster of emotions that a trail can unexpectantly cause. You should definitely be proud of yourself 😊

    We all experience those emotions on the trails at some point so brave of you to share. And the kindness of people at the Laggan shows that kind people are still there to be found . Well done and keep going. ATB Martin

      They were beyond amazing in that place. I think I shared more about it the next morning so won't give away too much but they went above and beyond.

      Thank you :) I rarely cry so to put it out there publicly feels odd but I have never known a gratitude like this. It ran deep to my very core.
