Be part of the adventure

You want to go to Scotland. You know you do. You want to spend four months wandering through abandoned castles, subterranean cities; picking heather and possibly meeting Nessie. You want to talk to the ghost who haunts the fourth hole of the oldest golf course in the world, and spend 7.5 credit hours studying the language and lore of the oldest story in the English language.

But you can’t. You have to go to work every day, feed your cat, pay your mortgage. You have to look after your mum, or have kids who depend on you. If you left now you’d miss your favorite music festival. You don’t like to fly. You don’t know what clothes you would wear. And if you did find the money and time to go abroad you’d choose to go to Egypt instead and see the pyramids. The world is a big place. You can’t see all of it.

Fortunately, there’s a solution. This is the future. You don’t have to do everything yourself; there are robots for that. And in this instance, you have the magic of crowdsourcing. And you have me.

That’s right! I’m going to Scotland for you! I’ll do all the hiking, swimming, sailing, and golfing so that you don’t have to. I’ll take pictures, videos, and write meticulous field reports so that you can enjoy the trip vicariously from the comfort of your home. I will write songs and tell stories and make hilarious commentary on Scottish culture contrasted to US culture. All you have to do is print and sign the following agreement:
