I spent two incredible weeks road-tripping!

Edinburgh is one of those cities where you go and get amazed at first sight! You won't want to get back home after spending a charming afternoon in a castle, believe in me!

From the highlands of Scotland to the port city of Liverpool and from the enchanting county of Kent to the suave capital city of London...

Definitely backpacking around the UK is one of most exciting trip you can do in your life. Further, Glasgow is probably the best city to do it, even if you're alone, like myself. There are so many nightclubs in the city, moreover you can find a lot of young people partying and making gatherings and things like this. I stayed at a hostel close to the University, and from there you can reach the city center and many interesting museums.
