"Breathes there the man, with soul so dead
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land!"
-Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832)
Welcome to my website!
Scotland is amazing, discover it with Maggie, a qualified Scottish Tourist Guide (Blue Badge). I am a native Scot, born in Edinburgh, of a long-standing Scottish family.
The Blue Badge is the most prestigious qualification in the Tourist Guiding Industry and the Coat of Arms on our badge is our guarantee of quality and only our members are permitted to wear it. Its use is protected for us by the Lord Lyon, King at Arms and his court.
I have a real passsion for my homeland and have the best job in the world - introducing visitors to my native land!
Scotland has something for everyone - ancient standing stones, historic castles, grand aristocratic clsassical houses, golf, whisky, wonderful restaurants, wildlife, a vibrant cultural life and not forgetting - fantastic scenery. The natives are quite friendly too!
