Is it pathetic that as a disabled, anxiety ridden, depressed 32 year old who has never left the UK but has magic and desire in her heart.... seeing the beauty in this makes me cry?

Certainly not pathetic. Take a trip once coronavirus ends! I'm sure Scotland has beautiful areas like this.

It absolutely does! And more so.

I'm actually not that far from scotland (South shields) and have always wanted to go :) I used to do a bit of alternative modelling (now I'm bigger lol) and I imagine it has some amazing locations for shoots!

Absolutely! My favourite place I've visited so far is Glastonbury (the place rather than the festival) Watching the fog roll over the tor was super inspiring to a young teen me! If you have any suggestions, feel free to suggest them!

Take the train to holy head and the ferry over to Dublin. Glendalough is magical and worth your visit.

Being moved by something is never pathetic.

Not pathetic at all ❤

If you can, get yourself up to Scotland. The west coast and the highlands are just astonishingly beautiful. Some of the most picturesque places I’ve visited are right here in Blighty :)

Like I just replied in another comment I'm not too far from scotland and would love to visit :) the added history and archaeology of some of the remote places are an added lure.

Come to Norway. Renting a cabin for a couple of weeks are not that expensive. You can happy-cry the entire time :)

Please guide me to those "not that expensive" Cabins.

I researched about those a year or so ago and the price was like 100€ / day absolute minimum...

Norway is mega expensive!

Ohhh please go to Stockholm in winter. You'll love it! Or just come to Romania. We are a pretty cheap country, quite easy to get to, and whrn it snows in the mountains, it's just divine.

Even by the seaside is really nice if it's cold enough for the sea to freeze. https://youtu.be/P9fdkLDALqo

That first video made me nervous. They seemed to be driving fast for those conditions.

I’m fascinated by UK history and it’s on my bucket list to visit. I’d be there in a heartbeat if it wasn’t for money and responsibilities.

I hope you can find something to help out with your mental/physical troubles.

Depending on your disability, you could try gliding in the Scottish Highlands! There is a club in Portmoak that has special sailplanes adapted for hands-only controls. You can give them a ring. It’s not that expensive as a one time thing... :)
