My Next Campervan Trip-Why Scotland? | Heritage, Ancestry & Identity Through the Lens
from Melanie Gabbi -Bridging Psychology And Spirituality 101 · host By Melanie Gabbi
Over the past year I have been posting videos of my trip to various UK locations ,in my campervan . I recently did a trip to Wales and it affirmed for me to go back to my roots and do a trip to Scotland. Here I share why, Scotland and what it means to me. This journey is more than travel — it’s a return to family roots, ancestry, and the hidden stories of heritage, identity, and resilience. In this video I share why Scotland matters to me, and how changing spaces helps us reflect on who we are, and who we are becoming. In this video: How my family story in Scotland shaped my journey. Exploring ancestry, identity, culture, race & class. The influence of heritage on childhood & family life. How travel connects us to memory, resilience & belonging. Why Changing Spaces: Through the Lens is about more than tourism — it’s about listening to land and legacy.✨ Subscribe to my you tube page if you would like to see all the videos I create for my campervan adventures and new project Changing Spaces , born from my passion in exploring heritage and more Heritage + ancestry journeys.
