Pluscarden Abbey

Hey guys, I wanted to show you one of my favourite places, Pluscarden Abbey. For me, it is one of a kind place and definitely worth a visit! I'm not a religious person but I do believe in God. I don't go to church very often, but when I do, this is the place I love to come to. The thing I love most about this place is very quiet and serene. You can always hear the birds singing which always makes me feel happy. The trees, the scenery, fresh air.. it just makes you feel great. I remember the first time my husband brought me here, it was a deja vu moment. It felt like I had been here before, especially on our way there. The view, the scenery was so familiar and it was a very strange feeling. I will never forget that.

Anyway, the first time I attended mass there, I was really surprised. The monks are chanting one of their Gregorian chants, in latin. You can hear it in the background of the video. I just love it when the monks are chanting during the mass, but at the same time I find them a little scary. Hehe.. By the way, the monks live here at the Abbey, and you often see them going about their daily tasks.

I hope you will enjoy this video. I know the religious side of it isn't for everyone, but it is so nice here and I just wanted to show and share this place with everyone! It just looks and feels so magical!
