Who is the Sassenach Historian?

Hi there! I’m Hailey Beaupre, and I’m thrilled to share my love for Scotland with you. My journey to becoming a tour guide here is a bit unique—I didn’t just visit Scotland; I decided to make it my home.

Before I even set foot in Scotland, I was already deeply immersed in its history. With a master’s degree in museum studies, a bachelors in history, and a passion for historical research, I’ve spent years studying the fascinating and sometimes mysterious past of this country. But it wasn’t until I moved here from my small town in Connecticut, inspired by the “Outlander” series, that I truly understood the magic of Scotland.

What started as a fan’s journey to explore the landscapes I’d seen on screen quickly became a life-changing experience. I fell in love with Scotland’s rich history, its breathtaking landscapes, and the stories that make this place so special. My academic background gave me the tools to dig deeper, and soon, I found myself sharing these stories with others.

I’m here to make history come alive for you, blending fun and storytelling with the knowledge I’ve gained over the years.
