In this episode of Big Blend Radio's "Wanderers Compass" Travel Podcast, co-hosts Joelle Machia and Ryan Slough, founders of the Wanderers Compass Travel Blog, take us on an immersive journey through Edinburgh, Scotland—highlighting the iconic Edinburgh Castle and the magic of a traditional Scotch whisky tasting.

From the legendary Crown Jewels to swords, armor, and tales of military conquest, discover the castle’s pivotal role in Scottish history. Joelle and Ryan share personal stories from their travels, explore how the past is preserved through architecture and artifacts, and offer practical tips for visiting this historic landmark.

They also dive into the soul of Edinburgh, a city where ancient battlegrounds meet modern charm, and where whisky is more than a drink—it’s a cultural experience. Whether you're a history buff, whisky lover, or wanderlust-filled traveler, this episode brings the spirit of Scotland to life.
