We’d love your thoughts — please leave your vote and advice in the comments to help us decide! We’re also taking you along for a scenic stroll through Newhailes Estate (yes, there's a mandatory coffee and a gift shop visit ☕️) before heading home to bake some classic Scottish shortbread with the wee one. We wrap things up with a cozy fireside chat about what we’ve been reading lately—perfect for a quiet winter's morning in Scotland. 🔗 Helpful Links ➡️ UK Relocation & Scotland Living Resources: https://www.simplescottishliving.com ➡️ Support the Channel: https://buymeacoffee.com/simplescotti... ☕ ➡️ Atomic Habits: https://amzn.to/45AHWnW (affiliate link) ➡️ Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: https://amzn.to/4tazc1R (affiliate link) ⏱️ Chapters/Timestamps 0:00 - Intro 0:26 - Help us with the kitchen flooring! 10:48 - View of current flooring and our top 3 choices - GO VOTE! 11:13 - eSIM io ad 12:44 - Countryside walk (Newhailes cafe & gift shop) 25:10 - Book reviews 35:12 - Homemade shortbread with a surprise guest Whether you’re an American living in the UK, dreaming about a move to Scotland, or simply curious about our journey toward slower, simpler Scottish living, this episode is for you. 🎥 Don’t forget to LIKE the video and COMMENT your favourite hearty, winter recipes for us to try!
