Diana Gabaldon’s travels in Scotland.
During the interview, Ms Gabaldon spoke of how Inverness reminded her of her hometown when she first set eyes on it during her Scottish travels in the early 1990s. “We went to Inverness and
booked into a small hotel on the river and we were just enchanted by that. It’s a small town. It’s got a very peaceful vibe to it. I grew up in a small mountain town, Flagstaff, Arizona, and Inverness has much the same feel about it. It’s just a very nice place. I wouldn’t mind living there,” said Diana.
