I lived in Scotland for almost 2 years and it was the best time of my life. Whenever I see videos like yours celebrating how beautiful it is, it makes me so happy! Everyone should see it.
Sounds like you had a great time here, more important than studying is having fun and making friends. We are lucky in Scotland that people from around the world want to study here.
I went to Stirling University in the 80s and there were a lot of American students there at the time as they had student exchange programmes with US and other overseas universities. Stirling University actually had an American football team. I don't know if it still has.
Another fab video, Olivia. You are a natural presenter making everything sound fun and interesting. I hope you are enjoying more travel in far away places. The Scottish Tourist Agency should be paying you for providing such a brilliant portrayal of Scotland. Just too cute 😍
Thank you Olivia 🤩, your videos are really helping me alot, understanding Scottish things/culture, first I didn't thought that much about Scotland to apply for my masters degree but from now on I'll mainly focus to apply here in some good Universities. I'm watching your Scotland series and I'm loving it✨. Btw I'm Jehangeer, undergrad statistics student from Pakistan.
Jehangeer, thank you so much for the kind words! Good luck with tour masters degree and if you have any more questions about Scotland feel free to ask ☺️
gaelic was spoken all over the uk originally there was three kinds of gaelic, england gaelic wasnrt just one language, there was three main types, one spoken by welas and englaqnd, one spoken by northern scotland and one by the irish :) hope that hleps. and then each of those was broken down by region too into sub styles
@@racheltaylor6578 where you messed up is you didn't say england never spoke irish gaelic or England didn't speak Scottish gaelic. Which would have been true. But yes Cumbria which at the time was part of a countey called northumbria which would later become part of England they spoke faelic as did Cornwall and Wales. Which is attached to England and whose borders have shifted over time.
@@racheltaylor6578 saying England didn't speak gaelic is like saying lancastrians don't speak English because they speak the lancastrian dialect and its not the London dialect.
@@sincerely1iv It might time for you to come home , watching you walk and talk when you were in the Western Islands all i really saw was a lass like you ,feeling at home , something i see is that you loved your time in our land . Love Duncan
Neeps ain't parsnip, they're turnip!!! I think there are 40 recognised words for different types of rain in Scotland. Glad you enjoyed your time here though. Come back anytime.
Scotland is a good place to study, because it's quite and spacious, not very populated as with the rest of the British Isles . The Duke and Duchess studied there for that reason. Scotland is ideal for university especially for American students cost wise.
I’ve learned this since, haha. Honestly, I don’t know what they’re called in the US. It’s not something we had growing up in the South, so my first experience having them was in Scotland! A big fan though :)
i live in lancashire, not far from scotland, it once was part of scotland until the celt engels pushed back the celt scots (celts come from all over europe) but lancashire is very very popular with scotish holidaymakers, blackpool esp[ecially, because its very much like scotland, and we have the lake district at our doorstep. its worth going to lancashire too
Your history is a bit warped there pal. lancashire was handed to England as bail when a Scottish king was captured during a battle. The Scots and Picts actually pushed the Angles down into England.
@@ianmacewan9416 I'm going back further mate your talking g about modern day. OK il explain it to you so you understand. Before rhe enflisb arrived in Britain the scotish migrated to Ireland. Then the enish came and took over loads of the including parts of scotland there is a fantastic historical battle where the Scots kicked the Engles out of Scotland and Lancashire. The Scots landed in Scotland in the 5th century ad where hristians at that point. When the Angela turned up Scotland d was largely inhabited by tne vacomagi. Thats who the scotish eventually either bred out or killed off on their return to live in Scotland d with rhe picts. This is all on the digits outland page .a Mare, and on the visit Scotland site.
Olivia quite a good take on Scotland you might have mentioned that Scotland has been inhabited for 12000 years, and predates both England and Ireland in terms of geology for example Stonehenge is less than 4000 years carbon data testing yet in the Highlands there are standing stones more than 5000 years old probably built by the Picts the, and in terms of language Gaelic if you go back to 1st century onwards Rome called Ireland Scotia (land of the Scots) and the people Scotii fact check on encyclopedia Britannica under the SCOT just the Irish trying to hijack history again, Ireland was called Hibernia and Scotland was called Caledonia in those days but Ireland was called the country of the Scotii Ireland was called Ireland much later and we in England did have a few fights with our northern neighbors but we're all cool now 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
We in Scotland had the best education system in the world. But sadly this is now not so now because along came the SCUM SNP and ruined everything that we genuine people of Scotland held dearly.

Stirling is not a Town it is a City as it has a Castle and a University.

Thank you for explaining that :) It's super interesting to follow the history of languages!
Your talking absolute rubbish.Gaelic was never spoken all over the U.K.
@@racheltaylor6578 Irish Gaelic, Scottish Gaelic, Cornish, cumbric and Manx.are all classed as dialects of gaelic

My terrible mistake! Haha, whatever the name they’re delicious ☺️
They call them swedes in England, turnips are those strange white and purple things.
@@okiwatashi2349 they do, but in Scotland the turnip is the yellow one.
