Getting Lost in the Highlands Isn’t Romantic

Everyone says to rent a car in Scotland and just drive. So I did. Somewhere past Loch Lomond, the road narrowed, the rain started, and my phone signal vanished. The Highlands aren’t curated for you. There’s no playlist that fits the silence, no pub every mile. Just sheep, fog, and the slow realization that being lost isn’t always an adventure—it’s sometimes just being alone, far from anyone who’d notice if you disappeared. I thought I’d find something out there. Instead, I learned how loud my own thoughts get when there’s no one to answer them. Worth it? Maybe. But not for the reasons I expected. #SoloTravelTruth #LostAndFound #HighlandsUnfiltered #Travel
