    This might be the longest edit I've done in my entire UA-cam career 😅 I hope you enjoy the beautiful views! Also, this may just be the first episode of a new series of videos... If you have a literary location you think I should visit next, let me know! - Sanne

      I am interested in the Bloomsbury group, would love to see a video about the writers associated with this group 🥳

      Dorset for Thomas Hardy's Cottage and for places like Lyme Regis where Jane Austen spent some time would be so cool!

    I have recently found your channel and glancing through the playlist I came across these literacy trips. May I say these posts are a balm to my soul. Your trip into the Scottish borders was fantastic and made me want to visit these areas. Thank you for these posts and please can we have more.

    I'm loving the booktube Scotland videos at the moment and this was incredible.
    I'm planning a trip for my 40th at the moment... Maybe Scotland should be it!

    Dear Sanne, thank you for this beautiful and very informative video. I've had it in my playlist since uploading, but it has never felt like the right time. Until now, there is a bank holiday today and finally an autumnal feel outside, I sat down with it to watch and enjoy. Take care and best wishes from Slovakia

    Fantastic Video! The Tourism industry has been hit hard, what a wonderful idea to showcase various literary travels to inspire both the traveler and the armchair traveler 😊. I would love to see you visit Belfast for all things C.S. Lewis! The trail, the square etc. Thank you for taking the time to make such an enjoyable video!! Happy Bookish Travels!!

    Oh Sanne! I've been a subscriber for a decade and you are one of the few creators I always come back to this platform for - and this may be my favourite video of yours, ever! I have lived in Edinburgh for 3 years and just a couple of months ago I finally did a weekend trip to the Borders - Melrose and Abbotsford to be precise, so not nearly as many places as you managed to see. But seeing those places - and the ones I am yet to visit - through your lens and eyes and with how you wove the history of the place and its literary greats together made me appreciate them even more. Thank you for what must have been quite a grueling edit and for sharing the trip with us - can't wait for any other literary trips you might do in the future. ❤

    Such a beautiful and inspiring video! 😍 As a student of the English language and culture myself, I have been wanting to visit some of the beautiful places of Great Britain for the longest time. Without a driver's license, it would have to be by train, and without anyone else wanting to come with me, it would also have to be a solo trip - but maybe one day soon enough I will be brave enough to do it.

    I know it's not the same but I'm currently planning a family trip to the Highlands (Loch Broom) and this has made me unbelievably excited. I've only ever been to Edinburgh once so roll on Scotland's beautiful views. An absolutely ideal first holiday for my very outdoorsy daughter

    This video lowered my blood pressure. Such gorgeous work. Thank you for sharing. I read Private Memoirs and Confessions in a gothic lit class during my undergrad and ended up writing my capstone/thesis paper on it because I enjoyed it so much. My former English literature major self geeked out hard over this video. Can’t see what else you have in store for the series!

    Congratulations on this beautiful video Sanne! I enjoyed learning through you some things about the homes and history of two literary greats. Looking at beautiful gardens and land, it calls me to go visit Scotland even more and looking at the weather, I am cold haha. It was good seeing you again and thank you for this video!

    I started reading Mysteries of Udolpho last week, so this provided some really interesting context as it was published in 1794. I haven't been to Scotland in a while, and I miss it very much, very cosy video. :D

    • @booksandquills
      @booksandquills  2 роки тому

      So glad you enjoyed it! I never got the intro books before because they (to be totally honest) looked a bit boring, but I was pleasantly surprised :)
