About gypsy_girl:
I am 22 years old, and feel like I have many adventures ahead. I have an immense passion for travel and cultures, and I can't think of anywhere in the world I don't want to go.
Hobbies:Writing, reading, camping, exploring, going to the pub, spending time with friends, meeting new people, concerts and festivals.
Favourite places:I haven't travelled a whole lot yet, but my list is getting long:) I did spend a working holiday in the UK, mostly living in Edinburgh, Scotland, and had an amazing time. Gibraltar also hit the spot for me. An interesting amalgamation of cultures and religions living together in harmony, and so close to Africa you can reach out and touch it.

Home for a Rest
Posted by gypsy_girl | 3rd March 2007
After a 9 hour flight and a long drive home, I am pensive about the 2 months I just spent in Edinburgh, Scotland. Not because I had a horrible time. Just the opposite, I had a brilliant time; saw my old friends, made some new ones... even had myself a lovely boyfriend for a short time. The only bad thing about Edinburgh is having to leave it. It gets bloody harder every time, yet I keep going back. Who knows, maybe someday I'll just stay... if only it were that easy!
I started out my trip extremely sleep deprived, having already been up for over 40 hours by the time I'd arrived. Thinking I would avoid some jet-lag by staying up the night before my flight and sleeping on the plane, Murphy's Law heralded this was not to be the case. I ended sitting next to a lovely Welsh guy who'd spent the last few months in BC. Having musical taste and other indulgences in common, we chatted most of the way.
Off the plane in Glasgow, and 2 buses later, I ultimately arrived at the St Andrews
