Cheers! Enjoy the Scottish whisky! What is the weather really like in Scotland? A motorhome trip with the MoWuKnuffels to our English-speaking Neighbors

The German title of this travel diary is Sechzig mit links. Mit links is German for "easy, simply or without problems". As there is no equivalent in English, the title has been freely adapted from another Scottish specialty. Cheers!

The author has just celebrated her sixtieth birthday. Does one make this step into a new phase of life so easily? Is it perhaps the left hand English way of driving that is meant? Or does the number 60 refer to the British speed limit in miles?

You can find out if you follow in the footsteps of the MoWuKnuffels, who set their sights on their English speaking neighbors on this journey. In her usual amusing and critical manner, the author again describes personal impressions of the country and its people in her latest diary.

Monika von Borthwick belongs to the older generation and lives in culturally rich Upper Bavaria. In addition to her professional work, she looked after bus travelers as a tour guide in the European region. Even then, she wrote down her experiences of the country and its people in more or less detail.
After the death of her husband, she shifted to traveling alone and explored numerous areas in Europe and North America on her own with her newly acquired motorhome and her two dogs. In the process, she discovered a love of storytelling and sent detailed reports home by email. These documents form the basis for her personal stories from each host country.
