It was a pleasure and an honour to present a teeny tiny glimpse into my PhD thesis findings at the Centre for Scottish and Celtic Studies at @uofgartshums.bsky.social last week! Many thanks to everyone who tuned in online from abroad or joined live in Glasgow 😊

Do join if you don’t have any plans next Tuesday night yet! I‘d be over the moon 💫

One of the greatest chance discoveries in Scotland so far is definitely the wee library near Eas Mòr on the Isle of Arran. Truly a library of lives and stories in its most stunning variety 😍 Never regretted not being on social media less and getting the chance to discover this entirely by accident!

It was a true joy to present my two papers last week at the “Scotland Within and Outwith” conference at @uofgartshums.bsky.social and at the PGR symposium at the University of Stirling! Many thanks to @laurzzs.bsky.social and Calum Esler for the fantastic organisation! 💫

Absolutely blown away by the beauty of Glasgow - I‘m so grateful to call this place home for the foreseeable future 💫
