You can also type in real estate info and get a feel for the areas your considering and lots of nice videos that take you many places, including foods specific to Scotland...everything looked good!

I'm an American living in San Diego, California trying desperately to find a way to legally move to Scotland, specifically Edinburgh. The more research I do, the more I'm finding it to be very difficult, if not nearly impossible,...at least legally. I was hoping you'd have explained what you did to make it happen in your video. But, unfortunately, that information was missing. Any recommendations/advice/ suggestions are greatly appreciated. Congrats on the move! 👍

This is dope. Would like to hear more on the process of moving to Scotland 👌

We moved our family from southern CA to Berlin in summer of 2015 with two teenagers and two large dogs - flying the dogs was definitely the most stressful aspect but we survived - we had to move back in summer of 2017 due to other family circumstances but we really loved our time in Germany and got to travel - absolutely adore Edinburgh! Best of luck to you and your family!

Your 'bairns' (no longer 'kids !) are absolutely gorgeous - welcome to Scotland !

Welcome to Scotland! Love the shots of Portencross. I used to live in Largs, just up the coast a little. I originally lived in California but now I’m in a small town north of Glasgow. Hope things are going well for you and your family.

Me and my family are seriously thinking about a move to Scotland but I am 39 with a few health issues. It's a beautiful country and very safe place to live. I really wouldn't even know where to start looking for work or a place to live. Maybe me and my wife will visit in the future and decide if it's the right thing for us.

I wish I can move to Scotland. It looks beautiful. I wonder what your cats thought

The twins certainly look as if they were happy enough on board your flight, which is great. Hopefully it's like a real big adventure for them. But also I hope that you all will be real happy and healthy in Scotland. Best of luck to you all .

So freakin impressive that you handled that move! Great job with the edits.

Me and my wife are trying to move elsewhere over seas so it's good to see the process

Omg I needed this encouragement. Fam of 6 with three pets desperately wanting out of the USA. Scotland is our first choice! Any help on easiest routes to securing work and visas. Hellllp!

The trip may have been difficult for you, but your kids are thriving. And completely adorable! I wish you the best in your new adventure. At some point, could we hear about the logistics of the whole thing - visas, cost, bringing pets with you...?

Congratulations welcome to bonnie Scotland. I hope that yous all have a very happy time with your new life here lolx 😀❤😀

So many questions! How is it socializing with the Scots? Acclimating in the new climate? The legality of things..etc..?

New subscriber! Love y’all’s family and so excited for y’all to experience living in Scotland! From one parent to the next bless y’all for getting through that trip! Lol. Traveling with two little ones is no joke! Looking forward to following along for your journey!

Thanks for the video. Any chance you could provide details, descriptions, narratives about how you got your cats over? Maybe make a video? I guess I am interested in the research you did.

I'm quite late to this video but I have a big question about my cats that no one seems to be able to answer. When you ferried over from Amsterdam, did you still have to quarantine your cats for many months? I am very concerned about this possibility as one of my cats has severe anxiety and it badly affects his health. I am afraid a quarantine of that long would affect him badly. Thank you so much for the video!
