Hey Mary, something that may bring you some peace with your move- Millions of years ago when Scotland and the America’s were one giant continent(I think Pangea) they broke apart due to plate tectonics and there’s actually fragments of the Appalachian mountains in the Scotland mountains 🫶 That’s why the landscape is so similar 🥰

Okay, I rarely ever comment on videos and as someone who makes them, really ought to be better at that, but I just needed to say a few things. One, I have no idea how your channel showed up for me but you are officially my favorite content creator. I'm 13 years older than you (also a Leo, hey!) but have a ton in common with you and am going through major life changes and you remind me so much of my younger and more free self that I'm reconnecting with. So maybe the universe brought you my way. 2) One of my intentions for the new year is to support more women-owned/small businesses. I bought your green crewneck and am obsessed with it. If you keep making merch, I'll keep buying it. 3) House of CB looks phenomenal on you. I'm your size but shorter and that brand is a gift to those of us with curves but are midsized. I kicked around buying that plaid dress and you made me regret not getting it! 4) I am planning my first Scotland trip for July 2025. I want to do Edinburgh and the NC500 over the course of 2-ish weeks. So, thank you for this vlog, because ohmygod I am so excited. I can't wait for you to move there so I can learn all the gems to hit up while I'm in town. Thank you so much for sharing so much with us. I hope y'all are having a wonderful New Year so far!

I can’t describe what this meant to me. Thank you so, so much 🤍

Hey Mary (and other lovelies reading this), I'm sincere when I say this. I was doing my manifestations this morning, and all of a sudden I got this massive feeling I want/ need to visit London and Edinburgh. After I finished my breakfast, I opened YT (homepage) and this video is just there... Almost like staring at me! ✨ Divine timing? A sign? ✨ What do we think???

[@cierracook3113]

I loveee these europe vlogs ahhh

[@sarahtellesen555]

Such a fun vlog, Mary!

[@kaylabecerra2012]

Yay you’re back! I’m going to Scotland this summer and I was wondering what hair tools or voltage converter do you use so you can use your curling iron and stuff over there?

[@MarySkinner]

I was able to use all of my regular tools with a plug adapter! I believe you have to have dual voltage tools to do that

[@kaylabecerra2012]

@@MarySkinner awesome thank you!!

[@samanthabowers2777]

Green hat is gorgeous on you! Where did you get it?

[@MarySkinner]
