关于此电子书

There were possibly twenty reasons why I hung the sign on my study door reading, ‘Gone to Scotland... back in a month.’ Reason number one: I was compelled to languish on a stone bench in the rocky high grounds of Edinburgh Castle, eyes closed, savoring the sweet sound of bagpipes echoing through the centuries-old stillness. The only thrill that could possibly surpass the bagpipes would be the sensory awakening at the Edinburgh Tattoo. Beyond that, my list included a longing to revisit the lochs in hopes of glimpsing the elusive Nessie, a craving for the earthy taste of haggis, a penchant for a lively Scottish reel and jig, and a need to purchase genuine Scottish shortbread. I also yearned for an authentic Scottish coat, gloves, and matching tam-o-shanter, the sight of a man in a kilt (preferably bending over to tie his shoelaces), and the desire to potter around a certain famous viaduct crossing.

作者简介

Fil Bufalo is an engaging writer of humorous narrative travel. She enjoys painting, gardening and reading, in that order. Not house painting, digging trenches or reading IKEA flat pack instructions; just plain old landscape painting, plain old weeding, and plain old reading historical romances. Fil was a teacher for far too long and is now enjoying her newfound career as a writer. In her spare time, Fil likes to sit on a beach chair and stare out to sea.
