The American Highlander

55K subscribers

Expat Gen X American living in the far north of the Scottish Highlands. This channel showcases a mix of: a.) Beautiful sightseeing in the Scottish Highlands and beyond; b.) Day-to-day life in a cottage deep in the far north of the Scottish Highlands; c.) Life lessons and commentary from a slightly crazy Gen X American who now lives in Europe. I've been a software producer, resort salesman, e-zine publisher, martial arts instructor, author, farmer, security guard, bellhop, tour guide, filmmaker, digital marketer, and many other jobs I can't remember. I've held every title from janitor to vice president. I've toured the planet with a billion-dollar stage show, overcome opioid addiction, escaped a cult, survived child abuse, and managed to leave the USA and start a new life in the United Kingdom. Key appealing elements of this channel: escapism (not many channels based in the far north of Scotland!), lifestyle aspiration, authentic emotional commentary, and relaxing subject material.
