visiting my future home | edinburgh, scotland

Come with me as I spend a week in Scotland before moving to Edinburgh for graduate school. ✈️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 What started as a holiday to visit my friend became something much more meaningful after I was accepted into the MA Graphic Design program at the University of Edinburgh. Knowing that I'll soon be moving from the United States to Scotland completely changed the way I experienced this trip. Instead of seeing Edinburgh as a visitor, I found myself imagining and experiencing what everyday life might look like in my future home. 🤍 In this vlog, I explore Edinburgh, visit my future accommodation, see the University of Edinburgh campus in person, enjoy a picnic in the Meadows, complete the Edinburgh Half Marathon, and spend time with friends in Falkirk and Glasgow. ☕🌿🏃‍♀️ If you're interested in moving to Scotland, studying at the University of Edinburgh, graduate school, life abroad, travel vlogs, or simply following along as I navigate a major life change, I'd love to have you here. I'm Barbie, a branding and communications professional from South Carolina who is preparing to move to Edinburgh to pursue a Master's degree in Design. This channel is my digital diary as I document the transition, the challenges, the adventures, and everything that comes with building a new chapter of life abroad. 📚🎨✨ Thanks for coming along for the journey. 💛 🎵 Music Credits Music by: Bensound.com/royalty-free-music License code: LHAXKFNIS336F7IQ Artist: Benjamin Tissot Music by: Bensound.com/royalty-free-music License code: B3L1LB1XIMZI0MDH Artist: Nick Petrov
