Blair Castle • Scotland

Blair Castle is one of many castles in Scotland.
In fact there are so many castles that you may not be sure which ones are worth visiting and which ones are not.
My personal opinion is Blair Castle is worthy of some time.
This lovely castle is located in the village of Blair Atholl and sits just within Cairngorms National Park.
There is a lot of intriguing history — including some Queen Victoria stories, beautiful pieces of furniture and gorgeous plaster ceilings that wowed me.
Plus it has a magnificent garden that you'll want to wander through.
Tune in as we explore Blair Castle in Perthshire, Scotland.

My personal opinion is that you can travel to Europe most any time of year depending on where in Europe you want to travel to and what you want to experience.

These are things to consider as you make your plans so you choose the best time to travel to Europe for YOU.
Officially known as the Kingdom of Fife Scotland, this council area or region is a must for lovers of history, the outdoors, charming villages and the sea.

The Fife Coastal Path gives you the opportunity to enjoy the seascape of Fife.

Often overlooked by its more famous neighbor, the region of Umbria in Italy has a lot of the same treats as Tuscany.
But with fewer crowds.
Small towns with cobblestoned lanes.
Rolling green hills dotted with vineyards.
Delicious food and world class wine.
Gorgeous churches with incredible art and architecture.
Plus Umbria is a bit more mountainous so the scenery can be a bit more dramatic.
So if you're looking for a destination in Italy that is a bit different yet feels familiar, put Umbria on your list!

Do you have a travel bucket list?
Maybe you have a specific Europe travel bucket list?
I always have a list.
In fact, in February of 2023 I put out an episode about this very topic.
But things change.
So I think it's a good idea to revisit your Europe travel bucket list each year.
Maybe you actually were able to cross some places off your list.
Perhaps you've added some new destinations (of course you did!).
Maybe you've shuffled some spots around as certain places have become more of a priority.
Now I get it that some people don't like the idea of a "bucket list".
So maybe a better term is a "wish list".
Whatever you call it, I truly believe in dreaming big when it comes to travel.
You can make your travel dreams come true (and I can help)!

Stirling Castle is a well known castle not far Edinburgh and Glasgow.
It's definitely on the tourist trail with good reason as it's an incredible site with lots of history.
And it was a very important castle in its heyday.
Nearby Doune Castle is less important.
Yet it still has some intriguing history.
And it has ties to a cult movie favorite — Monty Python's Holy Grail.
So if you like castles, of all sorts, then tune into this episode to learn more about these 2 amazing — yet very different — castles in central Scotland.
Most people who travel to Scotland don't typically head south of Edinburgh into the Scottish Borders.
But I'm thinking maybe this needs to change.
There are a lot of fabulous places to visit in this part of Scotland — pastoral landscapes with easy walks, charming towns and villages, beautiful rivers and stunning abbeys and stately homes.
How does this sound?
Well if it sounds appealing then tune into this episode to learn more about the Scottish Borders.
I'm betting you'll be adding this to your Scotland itinerary!
The Alpe di Siusi — Seiser Alm in German — is a destination I've talked about before.
It's this incredible high alpine meadow in the Sudtirol province of northern Italy.
In this episode, I'm going to offer up some updates on this amazing destination as well as make a case for why you should stay a couple of nights in the Alpe di Siusi.
Because you can actually spend the night — or 2 or 3 — in this gorgeous piece of Italy.
And by spending the night you get to see the sun rise and set across some beautiful peaks and you may be able to tackle some of those tougher or longer trails.
It's really a very special and unique place to spend a few nights.
So, this episode is a bit different as I'm getting a bit personal on where I am in life and what changes I'm making.
I promise it's all good.
And I promise Wander Your Way is still going to be around as it is with all the great content and travel planning services — plus some new (and exciting) things in the works!
But there are some changes in my life circumstances (as many of you know) so I want to let you know what's going on.
I'm also filling you in on my upcoming travels — and there is a LOT to tell you.
Seriously, I've got some awesome upcoming travel plans that I'm super stoked about.
Switzerland is one of the most beautiful countries in Europe.
