About Me

My journey as Tweed Valley Blogger began on social media, where I shared photos and short commentaries inspired by my childhood in The Borders, as well as gleaned from books, friends and family. As my interest in Scottish history, culture, and geography grew, I began intentionally researching topics to deepen my knowledge and share it with others. I realised that writing was more fulfilling than photography and that Instagram was not the best platform to showcase my content. This led me to create Tweed Valley Blogger in the summer of 2022. For years, I believed that The Borders were Scotland's best-kept secret, and I set out to expose its wonders to the world.

Let me to introduce myself - I'm Stewart Wilson, a proud Scottish father and husband with a passion for sharing stories and history. I loves writing, and my blogs reflect my adoration for my home turf and the surrounding countryside as well as my passion for sharing it with the wider world. In 2023, I decided to take my passion to the next level, leaving my corporate job to launch Tweed Valley Blogger (TVB) Tours. With TVB Tours, I offer private, guided tours of Scotland and the North of England. Join me for a tour, and you can expect plenty of laughs, a genuine local perspective, and a deeper appreciation for the area's unique qualities. Being my own boss has also opened up great opportunities for freelance work, and working on creative projects with exciting people is a joy. Visit the Tours page to learn more and book online, head to Work With Me if you have a project you want to discuss or simply check out the blog.

Thanks for reading, Stewart.
