There are a million sites to go to. I have been many times and it is like home to me- doing everything I can to move there. You know how after it rains and the sun is setting everything turns kinda a gold color? Imagine that color for most of the day. The land always smell sweet, even when its winter and nothing is in bloom. The food is always piping hot. The sound of galic, scot-english is a soothing music to your ears.(I know it all sounds corney, but its the way I see and feel it) expensive- yes, a bit. the exchange rate is a bit high, but not too bad. and you can stay in a hostel for rather cheap ($15-25 a night) food and beer is quite inexpensive but retail is high. would I go again? duh- yeah

it depends on the field you want to study if you are looking at the quality of the program, if you just want which place is more beautiful then perhaps scotland.

I think my month long trip to Australia was great because I saw so much and got to quit my job to go which made it double fun.  There are some photos on my 360 page of the holiday:\n\nhttp://uk.360.yahoo.com/monkeymanelvis\n\nyou can see how much fun I had with my mates Chris & Sophie.  It was the best holiday I have had so far!

Just 'google' sleigh rides uk and see what comes up! may depend on snow etc.\nHave you thought about a trip to Lapland? It's not that expensive and could be a really romantic trip!

I would suggest you come over for a holiday so you can check out the property scene and the areas in general.  Depending on the job you might want to live just outside Edinburgh - property is much cheaper and, if you think it out, the commute is not bad (many companies are now location outside the city centre anyway).\n\nEdinburgh has the same issues as most major cities - you just need to check the culture fits with how you want to live.\n\nOne point that I cannot stress enough - unlike the poster above DO NOT (I repeat) DO NOT refer to the Country as England ... this is a massive bugbear to Scottish people and actually quite insulting (think of calling someone from the deep south a Yankee [then multiply the insult by 10!).\n\nI am sure you know but the whole country is Great Britain/UK, with England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales making up the different parts.  \n\nEdinburgh is in Scotland and the UK, Edinburgh is not in England\n\nGood luck with it - drop me a note if you need any more.

How about volunteering with something like Doctors without borders - or the Peace Corp.  lots of change, adventure, shouldn't cost you too much and you would be doing something great.\n\nOr - get a cottage on the coast somewhere and write a great novel about your life in Scotland, or Austrailia!  I'd love to read it.

Scotland is in the U.K. region of Europe.  I think it is just north of England.  They wear kilts, play bagpipes, eat something called haggis (which I don't know what that is) and they are verys similar to Ireland.  Scotland is a Celtic country just like Ireland.  They share a similar style in last names, mostly names that have a Mc as a part of them.  A lot of Celtic music comes from Scotland as well.  \n\nEngland ruled Scotland for many generations.  The English burnt their houses down, raped their women, killed them, and did all kinds of horrible things to them.  William Wallace, a Scotsman, was a big leader in the fight for Scotland's independence.  Watch the movie "Braveheart" starring Mel Gibson as William Wallace if you haven't seen it.  It will show you just a hint of what the English actually did to the Scottish until Scotland won it's freedom from England.\n\nI've actually met a Scottish woman before.  Her name was Irene and I met her a few years ago in a bookstore.  My sister was with me.  She was a really neat lady.  I just listened to her talk most of the time because I loved the way she talked.  I love people with accents.  She said that in Edinburgh, Scotland, they have an annual festival called the Tattoo festival, but it doesn't have much of anything to do with actual tattoos.  I don't remember what it actually is about, though.\n\nAs with every country, Scotland has it's own neat culture, customs, beautiful sights and scenery, and neat people.  I have never been there, but I am going to go there someday.  I have heard that I have some Scottish in me, so I might go and see if I can find any family history there.  I know I have a lot of Irish in me, so Scottish isn't too far fetched I guess.

It's great! I've lived and worked all over (Australia, US, Germany & Ireland), and London is by far my favourite place. It's not cheap, though; The rent may well kill you.

i went last year. in Scotland, go to Edinburgh, and the castle there. the architecture in the city is awesome. the castle was closed when we got there, so we didn't go in, but we did enjoy the city. on  your way from England to Scotland on the main route you can go through Jedburgh, which is where Mary Queen of Scots lived at Jedburgh Abbey. if you have time, the Lake District of England is just awesome, and there are lots of B&Bs you can stay at. There are some interesting stone circles near the lake district, too. Don't forget Hadrian's wall, a good place to see part of that is Heddon on the wall, which is where my ancestors came from. in england, stop in the bakeries and get some of those delicious meat pies for a cheap lunch or breakfast, the fruit tarts are good too. and try the tea. you may thing you don't like milk in tea, but you may end up addicted, haha

I've lived in Scotland all my life.\n\nApart from anything else, Scotland is generally over-rated, scenery-wise...\n\nWhere I live, near glasgow, and indeed, about 2/3 of the country isn't a lovely scenic place.\n\nIf you life up in the highlands, the place is beautiful, but mostly, it's a bit of a unhealthy place, over populated by neds...

We loved it when we had gone there a couple years back with our kids. We had been to Montego Bay around X'mas time and stayed at the 'hip strip' there. The place is swesome. \n\nThe people are very, very friendly and laid back, love kids (which in our trip planning is an added benefit) and have a wonderful attitude to life. The beaches were beautiful and the weather was perfect. \n\nInfact it is one of the best vacations I have had so far. (The other day, I was just wishing I could go there again!)
