Приєднався 1 лис 2013
Hello and welcome! My name's Shawna and I currently live in Scotland. I started documenting my Edinburgh explorations on Instagram (@exploringedinburgh), which gradually developed into this channel! I definitely don't have the best equipment or editing software (yet), but I hope you enjoy watching my videos as much as I enjoy making them.
Bye for now!

Darling dog...such a sweet video! xo Hugs from Colorado (USA)!
What a lovely day you had with gus and sally. Gus looks a wee cracker. Enjoyed his walk. Thanks Shawna.
precious dog!
Awww! Gus is soooo cute! Just adorable! I really loved his tartan collar! What a lovely walk you had with him! That was also very sweet seeing Gus & Sally playing together! What fun they had! They are both the cutest dogs! So glad you shared your special day with Gus with us! Looking forward to more 'short yet very sweet' videos! Oftentimes they're the best. A happy wee interlude for our day! Maybe there will even be a few more featuring wee Gus & Sally! That would be wonderful! Thank you for sharing this delightful experience! Blessings to you Shawna!
That was a perfect video! Gus seems like such a sweet dog, and watching him play with Sally was adorable. I love the different stages: bark at each other, play together, ignore one another 😂 I hope you had a nice time dogsitting. Thank you for sharing!
Such a lovely vlog Shawna. Gus seems such a lovely little companion and of course it’s always a treat to see the gorgeous Sally. She was a very welcoming host to her visitor.
Another glorious video, Shawna. So green and beautiful. You are a fabulous pet-sitter as Gus clearly had a great time during his stay with you. He is adorable!
What an adorable dog Gus is and he plays so wonderfully with Sally. 🐶🐶
Hi Shawna, such a sweet vlog! Gus is such a cutie 🥰 looks like you had a lovely day with him! Have a great day! 🩷
Nice wee dug. Gus is such appropriate name for him, he just looks like a Gus if you know what i mean. Unless there are two Sally dogs in Edinburgh I saw her last week ( you cant really miss her) when i was out and about.
I agree, Gus really suits him!! Well, over the past few years I’ve noticed sooo many Samoyeds around Edinburgh so might be her or one of her relatives 🙊
And a good time was had by all ! Such a fun day 😊
Indeed! Such a beautiful day out 😊
Hi Shawna. I just subscribed. Your vlog is very helpful to me because I am a huge Ian Rankin fan, and this helps me to better understand some of the local scenes he describes. Cheers! From Minnesota.
Hello, friends! I apologise... I couldn't resist naming the video this (even if it is clickbaity) hehe 🙊
Your parentheses added the appropriate caveat. It’s not clickbaity 🤭 It’s perfect 😅
This was lovely! So fun following along for the weekend :)
Thank you for another amazing vlog! I too went to the Eras Tour ❤and it was phenomenal! Leith is such an amazing place! Have a lovely day! 🌞
love your vlog ❤
Thank you so much ☺️
Stirling is an amazing place. Is that an Edinburgh accent I hear? I would recommend the castle, the old town jail, and the Stirling Distillery. Cowane's Hospital might be of interest. It's right next to the Church of the Holy Rood.
I’m so looking forward to returning for another explore and thank you for your suggestions!! I’ve been to the Castle and loved it (might be one of my favourites in Scotland ☺️). Well.. I mix of accents 😅 I’ve lived in Edinburgh on and off for 10 years then Fife before that and Malaysia before that!
@@ShawnaLaw Stirling Castle is certainly my favourite castle in Scotland. Fife is a beautiful part of Scotland as well.
That looked like the most wonderful weekend (minus the heavy rain on that Friday). Sally looked like she had the greatest time at the beach, and I loved seeing The Shore again! As soon as you mentioned it had been a while since you had filmed at The Shore it dawned on me that it really has been a while. And oh, thank you for including Taylor’s Eras Tour. That was really neat to hear about your experience there. Take care Shawna!
Hello Patrick! Thank you as always for your lovely comment 😊 Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Loved my visit to aviemore, such a cool place especially when the sun comes out! ☀️🚲
Me too, thoroughly enjoyed my visit! 😊
Glad you enjoyed the Eras Tour and the rest of the chatty Edinburgh vlog.
Thanks so much for watching! And yes, we had a lovely experience 🥰💃🏻
i think you should start daily vloging❤
That’s very kind of you to say! Maybe some day 🙊
it's a really peaceful 😊😊😊🥰
As soon as I knew the Eras Tour is stopping in Edinburgh, I thought hmmm will Shawna go? And u did!!!
Awww that’s so sweet of you!! 🥹 we did and had such a lovely time. There was such wonderful atmosphere in the city too throughout her whole visit 🌞
Thank you for taking us along on your adventures. Particularly liked the day out with Claire and Sally who seems to always always enjoy exploring her days out. Leith looks like a very walkable place to visit. Always enjoy your vlogs.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment, Irene! I always enjoy my time with Claire and Sally so I’m glad you did too 🥰 take care and have a great week!
평화로운 주말 보내세요!
Thank you!! Hope you had a great weekend too 😊
Lovely vlog as always!! So peaceful! 😊 And so glad you enjoyed the Eras Tour!!
Aww thank you so much! Yes, we had a lovely time 😊
Love a chatty vlog ❤ Where is the raincoat from that you wore the beach?
Aww thank you for watching, Sarah 🥰 I got it in a charity shop but the brand is Jack Murphy!
Well this video is full of surprises, i would never have guessed you were a swiftie, have a lovely weekend Shawna.
Hehe yes.. I’m wouldn’t say I’m a diehard Swiftie but I do enjoy most of her music (Folklore being a favourite ☺️) Hope you had a great weekend!
I am not sure you could have a better week end than that 😊
Feeling very blessed indeed 🥰
Merci pour cette belle balade de week-end à la mer 🌊 🏴🇬🇧😀🌊🇧🇪👍
Thank you so much for watching 🥹🌊🌞
I love how you always find hidden treasures in your explorations. I lived in Stirling for a few years and found some new places to visit in this video. The monument and Castle are definitely worth a visit. As is the uni and Bridge of Allan is a lovely town too.
That’s so kind of you to say!! And what a lovely place to stay 🥰 thanks for the recommendations!
Very nice video Shawna. Well edited and presented as well as informative. Mike from insta 🙂
Thanks so much, Mike!! Really kind of you 😊
@@ShawnaLaw your most welcome Shawna 🙂
Besides a nice cup of tea, do you stop in at a cafe for lunch? Do you ever buy second hand records and CD's? I love book shops that also have these records. I am into folk music the most, especially from the 60's and 70's.
I do sometimes go out for lunch but as I live in Leith, I just had lunch at home this time 😊 I don’t have a record player but I do enjoy buying the occasional CD.
Enjoyed your video but like another person said, " I also don't care for your music." Also, a bit too distracting and overwhelming to watch the video. I keep the volume on so I can hear you speak. Rather just be able to listen to you speak and no music as well. I love music actually but not this piece you are playing.
That’s fair, I get your point 😊 I remember that was the style of music being played in one of the charity shops so I thought I’d go for that.
Nice. Love the hammer beam roof in the church. Really neat.
Isn’t it amazing!! A wonderful example of a hammer beam roof 😍
I had forgotten how lovely Stirling is 😊
We must visit one day together 🥰
A new shop for graphic novels has just opened on leith walk too - La Belle Adventure
That’s wonderful!! Thanks for sharing, I’m going to pin your comment so others might see it 😊
Another wonderful video! 🩷 Stirling is a great place to visit! Thank you for showcasing it! ☺️🙏🏻
Thank you so much, Claire! 🥹🩷
Another gem from the Shawna Vault! 🙌 Thank you for sharing your videos, regardless of how old they might be. Stirling looked like such a lovely place the visit. The daffodils at the cemetery were so pretty. I’ll also look forward to your more proper Stirling outing in the future! 😍 I know what I’m going to request next time you ask for feedback 😁 And your hair was so cute at the end of the video 😊 I hope you’re doing well Shawna!
Aww thank you so much Patrick! Hope you’ve had a good start to your week 😍
I love when locals interact with me when I travel and give shortcuts and information i would never have known!
Me too!! Great to get recommendations from locals 😍 it’s funny because I’m often around Edinburgh with my camera looking like a tourist I’ve had locals give me recommendations too which I always find so kind 🥰
This was a beautiful video Shawna. Loved it! Thanks for sharing, love from Australia.
Thank you so much for watching!! Love from Scotland back 🏴😊
Your videos are a lovely wee corner of the internet, thanks Shawna.
That’s incredibly kind of you to say, Jeph!! Thank you for watching ☺️
It’s a lovely video, and was a nice revisit to daffodils and early spring 😊
Thanks so much, Jem! It’s always such a short season that it was nice to revisit it when editing this video 🌼
Nice video Shawna :) Stirling looks like it's doing a bit better than some of the other smaller scottish towns and cities outside of Edinburgh.
Thanks so much for watching! I agree, sadly some of the smaller towns have really lost their high streets 🥺
🥹😀Merci beaucoup pour vos vidéos visites guidées 🌊🇧🇪
Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Stirling looks wonderful. Glad you were able to visit.
Thanks for watching! I’ll need to revisit soon to explore further 😊
Getting those train stations mixed up is such a classic mistake when you're not used to Glasgow! I remember doing it so much when I first moved here.
Oh I’m so glad it’s not just me 😂❤️
