Hi! My name is Valentin, I’m 25 years old and I’m from France.

I’ve already had the chance to visit Scotland, and I completely fell in love with the country — its landscapes, atmosphere, history and the feeling you get travelling through the Highlands.

Ever since that trip, I’ve wanted to go back. But this time, I don’t want to experience it alone. I’d really love to take some of my closest friends with me and show them the Scotland that made such a strong impression on me.

We’re planning a 10-day road trip across the country, travelling through the Highlands, discovering castles, small towns, scenic roads and some of the places I’ve been dreaming of sharing with them.

We’re all saving and contributing as much as we can ourselves, but accommodation, transport, car rental, fuel, food and activities can quickly make a road trip expensive.

I created this fundraiser to help make the trip a little more affordable for everyone in the group, so that hopefully none of my friends have to miss out because of the cost.

We’re not expecting anyone to pay for our entire trip. Any contribution, even a small one, would simply help us get a little closer to making this adventure possible together.

And if you can’t donate, sharing the fundraiser would already mean a lot to us.

Thank you for helping me share a country I love so much with the people I care about.
