News from the Big Apple

January 10, 2018 by Denise Womer

We started our amazing and diverse day with breakfast and then were off the the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Being there was like walking through time: touching the same railings, sitting on the same benches, and walking the halls of my ancestors before me.

From Up On High

May 19, 2017 by Asa Thomas Metcalfe

Asa Thomas Metcalfe

My original plan for my final day in Scotland was to tour the Edinburgh Castle, then the Writers Museum, then call an Uber for a ride to a brewery. A quick Google search led me to believe my best option was Caledonia Brewing, located in the Shandon area of Edinburgh, about two miles from our […]

Ghostly Encounters in a City to Love from Top to Bottom

May 18, 2017 by Cynthia Davis

Cynthia Davis

Under the tourist-littered streets of Edinburgh lies a city all its own. A dark, damp labyrinth of chambers filled with stories of murder, and tales of woe, from hundreds of years ago.

The Wild Garden

May 18, 2017 by Lilian Dalton Villegas

Lilian Dalton Villegas

A soft wind pulled at my jacket and the ends of my hair as if to coax me forward into the Wild Garden. I had been warned of Scottish faeries, and their habit of spiriting away unwary visitors to the garden, so it seemed wise to wait for the breeze to pass before making my way down the stone stairs and into yonder wilderness.

The Jitters

Amanda Merrill

I settle down in the stiff blue train seat headed south to Perth and stare in awe at the book placed like the crown jewels in my lap. It is The Outlandish Companion Volume One, and nestled upon the first page lays the signature of THE Diana Gabaldon.

May 16, 2017 by Tara Lewis

Tara Lewis

I glided out of the coach bus to meet the soft earth at my feet. Surrounding me were walls of ancient stone with green fields that went on for miles. To be honest I was not happy about my location. Our destination for the time was to visit the grave of Rob Roy, a Scottish Robin Hood-like figure.

I’ve found a new version of myself here in Scotland. And while I’ve been trying different and new things, and seeing a different world, there is a lot about this beautiful country that brings me back home.

The Bellini and a Pub

May 15, 2017 by Elisabeth Peck

Elisabeth Peck

I spent my evening hours at the River House restaurant with my classmates, officially ordering my first alcoholic beverage. I felt overwhelmed by the elaborate names blended onto the pages of the menu, and it was a few minutes before I finally decided on a strawberry Bellini cocktail.
