Solo travel to the FAR NORTH of Great Britain - Inverness to Orkney, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 [Ep. 4]

[@SyifaAdriana]

Welcome back everyone! This time around, I boarded a train towards Inverness, the capital city of the Highlands. Inverness is actually one of seven cities in Scotland and is Scotland's most northern city. I then continued my train for 360 miles from Inverness to the northernmost train station in the UK, Thurso. This scenic Far North Line journey took me along the northeast coast of Scotland, along towns and villages, lochs and castles. I then took another ferry crossing the Pentland Firth, a strait lying between mainland Scotland and the Orkney archipelago, which has some of the fastest tides in the world. The ferry was heading towards Stromness, where the coast of Norway is closer than London.

When I did this journey a number of years ago, when I was ready to leave Orkney to travel back south, I took the bus instead of the train. That gave me a slightly different view out of the windows, still lovely. Again I am enjoying your video!

I lived in Shetland for over seven years on the most northerly inhabited island in the UK, Unst. I recommend you visit Shetland, it feels more Scandinavian than Orkney.

We took a school trip up to orkney from one of the villages you passed through after inverness.. yeah, in my memory, there were 150 puking kids. Vomit everywhere. Best to sit on the outside decks i think.

Hi, Syifa. I recently stumbled across your video series as you tour Scotland and was struck by your genuine appreciation for my beautiful wee home country. I especially liked that you have travelled in a non-typical touristy fashion, taking in remote and virtually unknown areas for many. You produce a very soothing channel and it holds the intellectual appeal missing in all too many of the young influencer age. I will be an avid follower from here on & hope we see you back here soon. Terima kasih x

Love this! I've followed your videos since probably the Nepal series, and it's so strange/fun see you in familiar places - I've just spent a month in Orkney this summer, I'm normally based in the Central Belt of Scotland. Orkney is so nice, friendly and safe! It's a shame you didn't explore it more, there is so much history and they have tiny planes flying between the islands as basically their bus service. Very fun experience. But the NorthLink ferry is no joke, it can be super rough 🤢🛳️

Excellent video 👍 Thanks for the English subtitles! Greetings from Barcelona!

[@peterjeager4083]

A very enjoyable, honest and visually appealing video. Perhaps you do not know about that there is medication available that reduces the severity of sea sickness, if you take it at least an hour before your ferry or boat journey. Before you board your next ferry, you may ask for it at a local pharmacy. Usually no prescription is required.

[@SyifaAdriana]

Peter, thanks a lot for your kind comment! Yes I know that there's a seasickness tablet but since I travel alone, I need to rely on myself in being vigilant. The tablet would make me sleepy and make me drowsy so I avoided it 😂

[@peterjeager4083]

@@SyifaAdriana It is me rather than you who owes the other a big thank you. Your videos are a pleasure to watch, especially because they are honest. As for the vigilance, I understand your cautiousness, but funnily enough Britain is one of the few countries in the world where you can safely fall asleep on a train, bus of ferry. I used to live in Britain for five years, that is why I know this. People leave their luggages at the end of a long distance train coach and walk ahead 50 m to the other end of the coach, turning their backs to them for 5 hours, without worrying about them. Thefts on ferries and trains and buses are very rare. As long as you keep your documents and money close to your body, you can safely fall asleep. Take care: Peter

[@SyifaAdriana]

@@peterjeager4083 Hehehe thanks Peter! I usually am vigilant because I also have to film things while traveling as that's my main job. Yes you are correct, Peter that the UK is relatively safe and easy to travel for solo travellers. I carry lots of camera equipment and felt safe leaving it inside of the train while being outside filming. Where do you live now if not the UK?

[@peterjeager4083]

@@SyifaAdriana It is very kind of you to enqire about my whereabouts. I live in Hungary, as I am a native Hungarian. But those 5 years in Britain have left a deep imprint on my soul. Britain has a unique feel to it which cannot be put into words. It is in the air and in the soil and in the rocks and in the way people behave; and the more you live there, the more intense this feeling becomes. It penetrates into your inner being, and when you finally return to your home country, you have a strange, fuzzy feeling that something is missing, without being able to grasp what it is. When I returned home I thought I would get over it, but I have not. It is a kind of addiction, which you will never recover from. Best wishes: Peter

[@SyifaAdriana]

[@bryanbadger6841]

Hi there. I'm a new subscriber. I stumbled on to your channel and love your presentation. Just a wee bit of advice if you're prone to seasickness. Always Always sit yourself between midway and stern of the ferry. The motion is less. Also take ginger in tablet form or crystallized available from supermarkets. Ginger is a natural remedy which helps prevent motion sickness. Additionally swallow the tablet with carbonated water. The CO2 helps as well. Ginger has been used for 200-300 years I believe. But....take the tablets at least an hour "before" you travel as it gives your body time to adjust. The additional benefits of ginger, is that it's safe to drive, with it in your system, as it won't leave you feeling drowsy, like the chemical stuff available. Until next time, take care.

[@guacamolebelacan8094]

Uhh thank you so much for this comment!! Sorry for interrupting this comment, Syifa. I intentionally read every comment to search information about mitigating seasickness since in many times I also had this problem and it makes me a bit afraid to travel with boat or ferries. Thank you Bryan, I am happy to find this information, I will get ginger with me next time I travel by ferries.

[@bryanbadger6841]

@@guacamolebelacan8094 glad to help. Nothing new in what I've just said...generally it takes 3-4 days to get your "sealegs." But you don't have that time available on a ferry. Atb.

I’m sure you will love Argyll and Bute in Scotland which is a lot nearer and less distance, it’s one of the best places in Scotland. Facts about Argyll and Bute It’s a lovely and friendly community, very sociable and nearly always greet each other, whether passing by in the car or on the streets, this tends to get a lot more common in the Island communities of Argyll and on the mainland just most of the time and can decrease as you head out of Argyll and towards the more busy cities. There’s lots of history starting from 10/02/2024 even going far back to 01/01/1 and even to 01/01/5000 1. It is home to the worlds 3rd largest whirlpool, the Corryvreckan ( Coire Bhreacainn ) Tartan Cauldron, Plaid Tarn 2. It is where the king of Scotland and Ireland was based at Dunadd Hill Fort on 01/05/506, when these two countries were all part of the Kingdom of Dalriada (Dail Riata) 3. The Mull of Kintyre is based here in the southernmost point of Argyll where you can get a boat to Ballycastle in Northern Ireland and it’s only a short trip by boat, this is also where Paul McCartney, famous for his two bands; Wings and The Beatles. Where he owns a farm and he wrote the world famous song: Mull Of Kintyre, which is available on KZbin. 4. Argyll is home to spa Scotland Largest Freshwater Lake Loch Lomond (Loch Laomainn) and Scotlands 3rd Largest Freshwater Lake Loch Awe (Loch Obha) 5. Argyll has more islands than all the other counties in Scotland and loads of lakes and rivers everywhere 6. Argyll is also home to the Duke of Argyll who resides at Inveraray Castle (Caisteal na Inbhir Aora) 7. Lots of Archaeology and Ancient Artefacts (Kilmartin Museum) 8. The Worlds first pumped storage hydroelectric reservoir was built here which is called Cruachan Power Station. It was officially opened and switched on in 1965 by Queen Elizabeth. Cruachan currently feeds power to 200,000 homes but is being expanded to feed 600,000 homes with power which will help Argyll area and Glasgow City which currently benefits from the power generated at Cruachan. For more information visit websites like Argyll and Bute Council and The Heart Of Argyll, you can also have a loot at Heathers Treks and various other useful websites. Finlaggan
