On the next day of my trip to Scotland we went down to the seaside. It was beautiful, nice and warm. I am amazed how such a small region can have such extreme differences in temperature.

The best thing about this little walk we did on the Scottish coast was that it was totally unexpected for me. When you hear about Scotland, especially back in Brazil where I am from, we hear about the Loch Ness, the pubs, the gloomy scenery, men with skirts.

Try to tell a Brazilian friend:

Me: - Scotland had beautiful beaches.
RandomBrazilianFriend: - Seriously?

We understand there is some seaside, but our ignorance will make us imagine a very dirty cold port or something.

Scotland in the summer – if you are lucky – can be as beautiful as Spain.
