I hope you like history!

Welcome to the historical town of St Andrews. Featuring the world's 3rd oldest English-speaking university, the ruins of St Andrews clifftop castle, and an otherworldly rock formation east of the town.

There's PLENTY more photos from this day too! Isn't that nice? Just go here -> iancylkowski.com/blog/2025/3/1 👍

The ruins of St Andrews Castle, showcasing a weathered stone structure with remnants of walls and openings. The castle's stones are unevenly placed, with moss and lichen visible on some surfaces, hinting at its age. In the background, a blue sky with wispy clouds adds a serene atmosphere. A winding path made of wooden slats leads through the grassy area in front of the castle, guiding the viewer's eye towards the entrance of the structure, which features an arched doorway.
St Salvator's Quadrangle at the University of St Andrews, featuring a picturesque scene with historic stone buildings and a tall clock tower. The quadrangle is filled with lush green grass, where a group of people are seated, enjoying the outdoors. The buildings display intricate architectural details, including large windows and decorative elements, with some areas adorned with pink banners. In the foreground, a neatly paved path leads through the well-maintained gardens, lined with flower beds. Above, the sky is bright with scattered clouds, enhancing the inviting atmosphere of the university setting.
Buddo Rock at Buddo Ness, featuring impressive rock formations with intricate textures and colours. The towering red and orange hues of the stone contrast against a clear blue sky. A prominent archway is visible, formed by two large, weathered rock pillars that rise dramatically from the grassy ground. The surrounding area is dotted with tufts of grass, enhancing the natural setting, while the distant coastline can be glimpsed beyond the rock formations, adding to the scene's rugged beauty.
Another view of Buddo Rock at Buddo Ness, highlighting the unique geological formations of the area. The towering rock structure showcases an array of colours, including deep blacks, earthy reds, and soft greens, with intricate textures that suggest years of erosion. The sunlight casts gentle shadows, accentuating the contours of the rock. In the background, the coastline is visible, meeting the calm sea under a clear blue sky. The surrounding grass adds a natural element, contributing to the wild and rugged beauty of the landscape.

The Fife Coastal Path from Anstruther to Pittenweem then St. Monans.

Powerful gusts still battered us on the coast, but that just heightened the mood and drama. Gorgeous sandstone formations and beautiful coastal fishing villages... lovely.

And there's more photos from this day! I implore you, wayfinder, seek ye here iancylkowski.com/blog/2025/3/6 👍

A charming coastal scene at Pittenweem in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. A quiet pathway runs alongside a row of pastel-coloured houses, with walls in shades of cream, pink, and blue, and roofs adorned with vibrant red tiles. A wooden bench sits invitingly on the left, while a few chairs and tables hint at outdoor seating. The path leads towards the sea, where gentle waves lap at the rocky shoreline. The sky is partly cloudy, creating a serene atmosphere that captures the essence of this picturesque seaside village.
