How About Edinburgh For A Stag Party Destination?

Are you looking for a stag do location with a unique element, but don't want the expense and hassle of travelling overseas? Well a stag do in Edinburgh will provide exactly that, and here I shall provide a little bit more detail why Edinburgh makes such a great location.

The City of Edinburgh:
The initial thing that greets you about Edinburgh is that it is a stunning city, with majestic old buildings, lofted up on a hills and nestled in valleys. on occasion it seems as though the buildings are actually built into and out of the rock.

Edinburgh Stag Activities:
With its rugged mountainous countryside Edinburgh exposes itself to an amazing range of activities - plenty of which cannot be done anywhere else in the UK, such as white water rafting, canyoning, duckies, gorge walking and river bugging. If you don't want any of those then there are also many old favourites such as paintball games, quad bike trekking, clays and archery.

Evening Activities:
Edinburgh comes alive at night and has a amazing range of restaurants, pubs, clubs and trendy bars that will fit all tastes. During the summer period Edinburgh becomes a Festival city, with events running back to back through July and August.

Edinburgh Stag Accommodation
Due to its popularity with stag groups and general tourists, getting accommodation can become an issue - particularly during the summer festival period. On the other hand, there are plenty of hostels in Edinburgh which are a thankful preference for the budget traveller, and for those with a little more funds, apartments offer another excellent quality preference to costly hotels.

BONUS : How Could Everything Change So Dramatically?

I came across this quote today and wanted to share it with you. You may find that it relates to your marriage.

“The difficultly with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality, but we must live with a character.”
- Peter Devries

We can only appreciate the profundity of this statement if we understand what is meant by CHARACTER.

“Personality” is easy to understand. Your “personality” is how people experience you. It’s your public persona.

But what is “character?” And why is “character” so crucial in your marriage?

Character is who you are when no one is watching.

Let me say that again so you can read it slowly and really digest it this time.

Character is who you are when no one is watching.

You see, when you and your spouse met, you met each other’s PERSONALITIES. You showed your spouse and you were shown by your spouse your public personas. I’m not saying you tricked each other. It’s just your personality…how you display yourself to others.

But marriage lasts too long in too close quarters for anyone to sustain a public persona. Personalities eventually give way to an INNER SELF that gets revealed for the first time. And there you each stand, naked as if no one is watching. But someone is watching. And that’s when you meet for the first time…again!

You and your spouse don’t meet the person who charmed each other’s friends, bought gifts for each other’s parents, and always smiled from ear to ear. No, this time it’s a meeting of your CHARACTERS.

In many cases, it’s not only that you’re meeting each other for the first time, but it’s that you’re meeting YOURSELVES for the first time.

Most people wouldn’t be caught dead treating anyone the way they treat their spouse. Most people don’t recognize their own behavior. “I’m just not myself with him/her.” Well then who is that person? That’s YOU…it’s your character. (And your spouse meets their character.)

The reason so many people fail at marriage and an attempt at marriage renewal is NOT that they don’t like their spouse. It’s that they don’t like THEMSELVES. And while everyone else in their life is like a mirror reflecting their personality; their spouse is a mirror reflecting their character. And most people don’t like what they see.

Many people would rather choose to be with someone else than remain with their spouse and have to continue to be with themselves. (Did you get that?)

Balthasar Gracian wrote in his 17th century manual on success, The Art of Worldly Wisdom, as follows: “You are as much a real person as you are deep. As with the depths of a diamond, the interior is twice as important as the surface. There are people who are all facade, like a house left unfinished when the funds run out. They have the entrance of a palace but the inner rooms of a cottage.”

Marriage renewal and individual character development go hand-in-hand. If you want to improve one, work on the other too.
