I am fortunate enough to have an incredible family who put us up while we explored the north of Scotland. We stayed with my aunt and uncle in Nairn, and used that as a launch point to travel to Fort George, Inverness, and Cairngorms - some of the most beautiful areas of the Highlands.
It was amazing to travel in this area, but my favorite part of this leg of the trip was the time spent with family. Since moving to America I have only seen the majority of my relatives once or twice. It was unreal being able to spend time together and it honestly felt like I had never left. It made clear the sacrifice my parents, siblings, and I made when we moved to the states. That being said, the distance made our short time together that much more special and I feel so lucky that I was able to see (almost) everyone.
