Can you tell us a bit about the area you live/work in?
I live in Portobello, Edinburgh. We’re lucky enough to live right by the sea and enjoy the constant shift of light as it plays on the sea and sky.
The huge public space of the beach is a wonderful resource, lit by bonfires at Hogmanay and the summer solstice and increasingly busy with wild-swimmers taking a dip in the (sometimes) blue water.
The community in Portobello is second to none, there are several events throughout the year often based on or around the beach and the prom. During the COVID lockdown in 2020 it’s been a great place to find some space and stretch your legs on an evening stroll – keeping your eyes peeled for seals popping their heads up, or even the occasional dolphin!
