Moving on so soon!

I can't believe that these months have passed by so quickly, i have worked hard and saved hard and now the season has come to an end. My boss has sold the Loch Leven Hotel and i am leaving along with her, with my last day being at the beginning on October. Its has generally been a good experience, with at least some of my faith being restored in the British hotel industry. Thank You.


The last post i wrote was about arriving in Loch Leven, with internet being completely dodgy in this part of the world i gave up on trying to post on my blog and Facebook etc. But now i am planning a short stay at my parents (who have hardly seen me in the last year), where i can rest and catch up on my internet life, which has been pretty much neglected over the last 4 months, and post some of the couple of thousand pictures of the Scottish Highlands and lochs i have taken.

So my next adventure is going to take me to who knows where next, but i do know that i am leaving the shores of Loch Leven soon. Already i am already excited about my next adventure, i can't wait to see what happens next.

Arriving on the shores of Loch Leven

Travel, Scotland

It is a new start for me. I have now arrived in Scotland, where i am working for a hotel on Loch Leven. I plan to stay here for the summer, whilst i save some more money for my next adventure, whatever that shall be. I am really looking forward to getting to know this part of the world better. 

The hotel i am working at is crazy, crazy busy. Which is a good and bad thing. Its good that i will be able to  earn and save loads of money, but it is bad for traveling and blogging side of me. I am working split shifts, so i am going to be relying on my days off for getting around. I have gotten so lazy recently with my ridiculously easy job in Chamonix and then just 3 hours a day of study in Lyon. 

There is an old bike in an out house of the hotel, that i am hoping i can get fixed up, then i will be able to go on amazing bike rides along the lochs. Despite the hills this part of the world is perfect for cycling, because loads of the roads are reasonably flat and run along side the lochs and valleys. I am wondering if i can make it all the way to Fort William and back in a day. Its been awhile since i have done any cycling, so we'll see. 

Anyway here are some photos i took on my first day.
