Great Feedback from our first project
"Our work with Susanne and the Scotlanders aimed to bring a focus onto Mary's Meanders and Linlithgow and to show that we are a great location for a day trip. From our first conversation with Susanne I knew that she understood our concept. On the actual day it was a real pleasure meeting the other Scotlanders who all had great enthusiasm and genuine interest in the event. We were delighted with the results from Social Media campaign and were able to see how their blogs, tweets and videos had brought new potential customers to our website. We look forward to working with Scotlanders again on another project."

Stirling campaign 21 June 2015
This time I took the train up to Stirling. Stirling is our heritage capital. It`s close to where Scotland fought for many years for it`s independence. Plus for 300 years Scottish Kings ruled here. Really enjoyed this project.

Isleathon
Idea was to promote my beloved Scotland. A few weeks earlier I came up with the idea of seeing how many loch I could visit in one day.I pushed it on Twitter as a #Lochathon .
The idea went down a storm and many people from around the World re-tweeted the images.
By time we got number 12 Loch lubnaig we had drove 178 miles.

After the success of #Lochathon I decided to go one step further.I contacted my fellow Scottish Bloggers--The Scotlanders and had a meeting with our friends- the ferry company Cal Mac. The next project was to be called #Isleathon. The team was to visit as many Scottish Islands as possible. Cal Mac kindly supplied us with the ferry tickets and our digs.
