    First, congratulations on your first long distance solo hike while wild camping. I'm really impressed with how well you handled it, especially coming off food poisoning. Second, you did a tremendous job in capturing the wild Spirit of the Scottish landscape. I had visited Scotland about a decade ago, and it brought back great memories, including that sense of awe and wonder that arises from within us while deep within the majestic mountains of the Highlands. I could FEEL the Joy arising again within me as I watched that beautiful smile on your face. This was the first vid of yours that I caught, and I will be subscribing. I loved your authenticity and the sense of an innocent and bright Spirit that you have. Wonderful job with the music and the cinematography... You have a way with pulling everything together... Thanks for sharing your adventure with Us...

    First of all- what a beautiful name you have!
    Very rare and very pretty!
    🙂
    Now, I've seen a tons of WHW videos, short and long, interesting and boring.
    This one is stunning!
    It's deadly interesting and inspiring, and on top of that- it's made on a very high professional level!
    Just kept my full attention during a whole story, initially I was planning just to kill some time before doing some other things...
    ....and the story itself....
    😋
    At some stage I felt that I'm back in Scotland and walking again some paths.
    Ramona- thank you very much for sharing your experience and thoughts, awesome film, an outstanding work!!!
    Absolutely deserved like and subscription straight away 😉

    Congratulations on completing the West Highland Way Ramona. Did you edit this video yourself it was beautifully edited. I stopped at many of the campsites that you did. I was in Fort William on the 29th of April this year so only just missed you. But this year I was doing the trail from north to south. I too love hiking solo too, you meet so many people great people.

    This popped up in my suggestions, and as I'm a tramper (hiker) in New Zealand, I was instantly drawn in.
    Stunning videography and narration. 😍🌿🙆🏻‍♀️
    I'm genuinely interested - you are very beautiful, what is your ethnicity and where did you grow up?
    Initially I thought your accent was Eastern European, and then I see that you look more Asian.

    I very much enjoyed your journey. I am a backpacker but have only visited the Highlands, not backpacked there. A good strong pair of hiking boots certainly does help the pack feel easier to handle. Just a thought... The scenery and your presentation of your trip is truly beautiful.
