Infos

Everybody loves stories and Scotland is full of them. Every town, village, glen, loch, nook and cranny has a tale to tell and it's these stories that bring those places to life. Scotland's Stories is the key to unlocking those legends and seeing these incredible places in a new light. Loch Garve looks very different when you know there's a Kelpie lurking somewhere in its depths. There's a new appreciation for the iconic Eilean Donan Castle after discovering the man who built it spoke with birds. An empty moor or wooded gorge is easily brought to life with the clashing sounds of a battle fought long ago. Based on the popular travel blog from storyteller Graeme and Molly the Labrador, these tales will appeal to all who love history, folklore and Scotland.

Graeme is a storyteller with a passion for Scotland's history and folklore. He has a degree in history from Aberdeen and his goal is to share stories from the past in an engaging way, making them more accessible to a wider audience and in turn help them appreciate their travel around Scotland more. This technique has gained him a large, dedicated social media following and allowed him to work with well-known Scottish brands such as Hidden Scotland, Visit Scotland and many local tourist boards. He has been a monthly columnist for Discover Scotland magazine for over a year and lives in Edinburgh.
