Bad weather caught you unprepared? Already visited all the galleries and museums? Here are 6 tips from a local, giving you inspiration for how to spend a rainy (stormy, windy, freezing) day in Edinburgh - cozy style!
I tried to collate activities that I crave on a dreich winter day and also to add a whole bunch of pretty b-roll because I LOVE taking pictures and footage in bad weather - even if it cost me many nights trying to thaw surrounded by hot water bottles!

    “Keep it cozy. Keep it safe.” Definitely what Gandalf meant.

    Firstly, that shot down the Royal Mile to Berwick Law is stunning. Secondly this is a great city even when it's raining and dark. It's still pretty. i saw Puddings the other day. I will have to pop in now. Cool video. Hope you have warmed up and dried out.

    I am genuinely so gutted that the rain feels like it hasn’t stopped since I shot this 🥲 just earlier I had to make a mad dash to the bakery and my loaf still got soaked 😂 this is affecting the quality of my life and of my baked goods!!! Somebody needs to do something!

    Wonderful! From your opening scene at Atholl Crescent I thought you might just head over to the corner of Stafford and William Streets, which is a great go-to for male and female clothes shopping (or looking). There is also a hair dresser, and on William Street there are various shops and eats including a Teuchters Bar (w/eats). It is a gem area, with Fopp the record shop just up around the corner. Also, have you ever considered videos of just scenery? The 'around town' and 'rooftop' shots in this video reveal the beautiful bleakness of Edinburgh in the rain (great music, too). They are so cinematic, like something straight out of a movie. The sunny day shots you capture in other videos are also great. Compilations of such vignettes would be wonderful. You videos and enthusiasm help keep my heart connected to the city I love. Thank you.

    I'm hoping to make a video about just West End sometime this year - the area is lovely! The clothing shops always catch my eye! The idea of making kind of a "just vibes" video is interesting - it is definitely my favourite type of footage to take! I'm gonna let the concept marinate a bit .)

    I really like your videos Kak and this one was great.... I enjoy seeing places that aren't Tourist attractions but where locals hang out. Don't get me wrong I like the Tourist spots but also the local spots to hang out. I visited Edinburgh before Covid and spent 2 weeks and Loved it.... planning another trip soon.

    I'd love to see a video about "Edinburgh's other castle" aka Craigmillar Castle 😄🙌 It has some amazing history for the history nerds, and when me and my husband went to see it we where the only two people there 🫣 I recommend it to everyone if they want to see a beautiful castle, but doesn't like the crowds in Edinburgh castle. As a history nerd I also have other castle/fort recommendations if needed 😉 They are just a bit further away.

    Edinburgh is overall a really safe city - Leith is slightly more complicated because it is such a large area that the levels of safety can vary a LITTLE BIT, but still, most of the altercations one hears about in the news are about people who had a conflict beforehand, not between anyone targeting visitors.

    Do people have to hide their roots to appease you, the authority on who gets to call themselves a local? Thankfully Scotland and its representatives have put a lot of effort into making us, people who have lived here for 10+ years, feel welcome and appreciated despite of some of the problematic nation wide attitudes 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
