And just like that, our Edinburgh month by month series is FINISHED! Now you can go watch all 12 videos, enjoy the disparity in their quality, and decide which month is THE time for you to visit Edinburgh & Scotland!
I've decided to include some shots from the Queen's funeral procession as it has really impacted the city's vibe in 2022 - and some of you who couldn't make it to Edinburgh might find it interesting to see the queues, the crowds, and the new King too.
Other than that we have some pretty b-roll as always, some info on weather and what to pack, celebrations you should partake in and what areas to avoid to not be hit by millions of new students!

Yay for finishing all 12 month of Edinburgh life! Which month would you pick for your perfect visit? .)

@badwvlf Год назад

September is my favorite month in Scotland as well - usually great weather, no midgies, and autumnal colors 😍

@jim_dubhglas Год назад

This was a great monthly series - thanks for your uploads! You are always an autumn icon with your looks and fashion.

@JinJinDoe Год назад

Thanks! Very timely video :D Can't wait to visit this place.

@dangerouspea Год назад

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED this series and I think September is one of the best months to visit. It's sitll warm, the festival crowd is gone and the sun just hits you differently

@CS-pz1xg Год назад

I would love for you to continue these videos! as an Edinburgh local I love catching up on what's happened this month xx

@J0Darcy Год назад

Love the idea of neighborhood series!

@Fat_and_Funny Год назад

100% the best time to be there. It’s still reasonable warm, still enough tourists so it’s fun to be in pubs etc and less expensive

@Kakibot Год назад

Yes! You're right that it's good to keep some buzz in the streets, otherwise things get just... a bit eerie .D

@davidlockhart9611 Год назад

Thanks for the great series! Headed back over for several weeks to enjoy September/October. Always appreciate your entertaining and helpful tips.

@Kakibot Год назад

So happy to hear that! Fingers crossed those autumn months will treat you well .)

Really happy to have found your channel! I'm Portuguese living in Prague with my Czech boyfriend and we are incredibly excited to come visit Edinburgh in October this year. So we are finding your content on Edinburgh really useful and it's great to get the perspective of a Prague native on Edinburgh.

@Kakibot Год назад

Oooh how exciting! How are you enjoying Prague life? .)

Loved this series so much and love the idea of doing different neighborhoods in Edinburgh for your next one as we're hoping to do more day trips out your way! Would also love to see a Dennistoun vid whenever you make it back to Glasgow next 😂

@PardonMyFrench16 Год назад

I went to Edinburgh in April just because I have always wanted to go, and it was really beautiful. I fell in love with the city and with the country and I have never felt that way before, so these videos are helping a lot to see if I really do want to move there. lots of love, Claire 💜💜

@Kakibot Год назад

It has its ups and downs but I despite some of the struggles I think Edinburgh is one of the best cities to live! .)

Hi Kaki. I just stumbled on your videos while searching for Edinburgh videos. I have been watching your videos back to back from last 2 days. I am coming to Edinburgh with my 13 year old son on 26th of December 2022 for 4 days. Thank for your informative videos. 👍

@Kakibot Год назад

Sounds like you're gonna have a lovely time! Edinburgh around Christmas is stunning .)

@kathleenkalt3852 Год назад

We flew to Edinburgh from the U. S. and landed on the 21st. at 7:30 am. I knew we'd be jet-lagged but would want to stay up as late as possible and do at least one touristy thing. So, based on your recommendations we had 11:30 "afternoon tea" at the Signet Library. It was wonderful. My only regret is that we were so tired, we left our phones at the hotel and didn't get any photos. Everything was so beautiful. We really enjoyed our time there, but the Royal Mile walk and climb to the castle destroyed our feet and legs for days. It was fortunate for us that Holyrood opened the day after we arrived so we got a chance to go inside. It was quite surreal to walk where royals past and present had walked. I would suggest that anyone traveling to Scotland in late September bring a down jacket and a hat or scarf. It was quite breezy at any elevation.

@CS-pz1xg Год назад

maybe having these videos on a proactive perspective about what's coming up the next month? I've loved watching what's happened but wish I could plan my year around your finds! xx

@jenforsberg427 Год назад

Love your videos! We’re getting everything ready to move there and I would LOVE a series on the neighborhoods! 💗 Also, you mentioned August and September being a tricky time to find a flat… do you feel like it’s easier in winter or spring months? Thank you & be safe! 💕🌈

@@Kakibot A little over a week in total in Scotland. Several days through the Highlands, including Isle of Skye, and then three days in Edinburgh. I actually found your channel when I was debating train travel from London. The tips on what to wear and weather have been helpful as well as places to eat. I really enjoyed the high tea comparison video. I have had several recommendations for the Witchery.

@Kakibot Год назад

@@lynnbingham3236 Witchery does sound like an amazing place! Only heard good stuff about it too!

@lynnbingham3236 Год назад

@@Kakibot Didn't end up going to the Witchery because it would have taken too much time during daylight hours--we had a lot we wanted to see. We did go to a really good Indian restaurant called Solti that I would highly recommend. Also visited a fun little cafe called Haggis Box that had traditional Scottish food. They even had vegetarian Haggis that was really good. Keep up the good work on the videos. We had a fantastic time in Scotland. The awesome people we met really made our trip special.

just found this video in perfect time for our Sept visit !!! Can't wait, Edinburgh looks amazing and there is so much to see and do. We will only be there for 3 days so do you think a day tour to Rosalyn Chapel be a good use of our time ??? Keep up the great work, we love your channel !!!

I’d like to see you and Simon go down every close in Edinburgh in a video series. That would be cool

@andreavaughn854 Год назад

I was there the first week of August. I'd love to do a solo trip, in a less crowded month.

@gallaghim Год назад

Mission complete! I'll be watching the full play list with my notepad at some point, heh. I really like the idea of a neighbourhood series, I often just can't decide which area(s) are best to aim for as far as rents, etc. I do seem a bit drawn Leith for some reason. Costs do worry me (born worrier!), essentially I've worked out I'd need to pay at least an extra $200 per month than where I am now (Melbourne), but earning about $10 less per hr (going by the minimum wage). Complicated. Doable? Probably, millions already do it, but at what cost in terms of life satisfaction. *scratches chin* lol

@mauricelee2404 Год назад

I like watching your videos. Very informative. I note that it is getting cooler in Edinburgh now. Just wonder if it is going to pretty cold by end October and what clothings we need to prepare ourselves. Not sure if we need wool jacket and scarf.

@Kakibot Год назад

By that point the days will start getting shorter and once the sun is down it does get very chilly. It’s mostly the wind that cools one down, it likes to sneak under one’s jackets so scarves are good to prevent that! Personally I get quite warm when I’m active, so as long as I’m walking around town at a fast pace I can manage with a leather jacket and a scarf, but if that’s not the case for you, or you might want to sit outside in gardens or pubs, you’ll need something warm to wrap up in!

@mauricelee2404 Год назад

Thank you for your kind advice.

@DGsa1661 Год назад

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a blog for students moving to Edinburgh. Where do they live? Shop? Eat? Thank you 🎉

Please videos of the neighbourhoods will be so helpful. Moving to Edinburgh next month but don’t know about cheaper places to live.

@Kakibot Год назад

Being on my honeymoon and all I won't be able to cover this anytime super soon, but I'd say Leith, Dalry/Gorgie, Meadowbank are good areas to start looking if you're after a good value! All are relatively close to the city centre! With Leith you might want to keep in mind the tramworks going on right now but at least they are keeping the prices down.

Does Edinburgh do any halloween stuff? going there for a few days on my honeymoon during that time and wondering how "spooky" it gets. Sounds like I should expect Santa though haha

@Kakibot Год назад

I think slightly more Halloween than most continental European countries but way less than North America for sure. People tend to throw parties privately though! You might also be able to get into a special spooky history tour! And of course, Edinburgh just IS spooky on its own, Halloween or not!

@annayudelson Год назад

Check out Cauldon bar. It's a wizardry themed bar in the city centre. They're also hosting a cool Halloween experience this year

@RalucaBlajut Год назад

Hey! :) A bit off topic, but I was wondering what are Scottish people like? I’m considering relocating to Scotland and I’d love to know how easy it would be for me to make friends and blend into the Scottish society ❤

@h-Qalziel Год назад

People in Scotland are generally very friendly and you can easily spark up a nice conversation with anybody in the streets. Of course, as with any country, making friends as an outsider is a bit harder as everybody already has their own 'groups', but Edinburgh is also a very international city with lots of people looking for friends too!

@Kakibot Год назад

The previous comment really hit the nail on the head! I think Scottish people are generally friendly, and the levels of friendliness/openness to a random talk varies area from area. But I'd say as a rule, Scottish people are NICE and you can ask anyone for help or assistance when you need it without having to fear rejection or feeling like you're bothering them. But yes, as adults, locals tend to have pretty "filled up" social lives and it can be hard to feel like one of the group. I find lot of my expat friends manage to overcome this by simply becoming besties with their colleagues, haha .D that's like a fast track into anyone's social circle!

@samkitjain1061 Год назад

@@h-Qalziel I recently moved to Edinburgh and completely resonate with this. Moving as a student might be a bit easier though to make friends.

Im planning to visit London next year in september but ofcourse i will take the opportunity to visit edinburgh. Is it okay and the best time to visit edinburgh in September ? 🥲 hopefully less rainy days coz we just had enough rain 🌧️ here in asia 🥲 Is it enough if i spend 2 days there? 🙇🏼‍♂️

@Kakibot Год назад

Edinburgh's city centre is quite compact, so I think two days can be a great amount of time for a quick first visit! I can guarantee you'll end up wanting to come back and spend more time here in the future though ,)

@@Kakibot ahh tq so much! How about the weather? This is my first time to europe under travel agent but its more to self - trip. They allow us to adjust our own initerary . So because Edinburgh is one of my dream place to visit i take two days out just to visit Edinburgh! . Hopefullyy 2 days are enough for the quick visit ! Tqsm 🙇🏼‍♂️

@Kakibot Год назад

@@reylchinoe I think the most crucial thing to prepare for is the wind and how fast weather can change - this is both a good and bad thing, because you rarely get a whole day of "just bad weather" - it will usually go from good to bad and back again! Which is good for short trips like yours! I recommend a jacket with a hood and maybe a hat and a scarf, and boots that can take some rain and don't slide - the cobblestones here can get a bit slippery! Especially when you venture high up (the castle, Calton hill, viewing terrace of the museum), be prepared to be hit with the elements! It will probably not be super cold during the day but it usually feels chillier than what the forecast says - because of the wind! .)
