Christmas markets selling mulled wine and delicious sausages, fairytale Old Towns covered in the glistening white snow, and amazing History just about everywhere you look: there’s nothing quite as magical as December in Edinburgh.

Despite its gloomy reputation, autumn is one of the best times to explore the U.K. England’s coastal gems may be too nippy this time of year but don’t miss out on a plethora of charming villages, picturesque parks, and, of course, the multitude of action-packed cities. Obviously, London being the main draw. Yet even as …

We know what you’re thinking: how could there possibly be anywhere in freezing, rainy Britain that’s over 80 degrees Fahrenheit right now, and more unfathomably even, there are turquoise waters to swim in?

With its slower pace of living, high levels of safety, and cultural wealth like no other, Europe seems to be the end goal of every digital nomad.
