Welcome to Our Scotland, the podcast where we take 24 hours in Scotland, add in teleportation, time travel and anything else we please to conjure up the day of our dreams.

My name is Alison Fraser and I love all things Scotland, the people, the food, the music and the places and my guests are people just like me.

In this episode I’m joined by Seattle-based writer Patti Callahan.

Patti has been a student, hairstylist, cocktail waitress, corporate professional, and small business owner. She’s also an expert multitasker who has pursued a lifelong love of travel, completed her MBA, and raised two sons. Patti maintains a blog on Medium - @novelsandtravels - and lives in the Pacific Northwest with dreams of an apartment in Europe to use as a home base for wandering the world.

You’re going to hear a tale of two cities where Patti would love to spend her perfect Scottish day.
