Q5 What does the word authentic mean to you? #belocal #scotlandhour

A5 To get a real authentic experience, you need to become a #temporarylocal and seek out what the locals do. Visit local pubs, cafes and events and chat with the locals, then, you'll get a real feel of a place. #scotlandhour #belocal Image: LagganWolftraxCentre

A5. Authenticity is a community being true to itself and that is what we do at Newcastleton/Copshaw while giving visitors a warm welcome. #belocal #scotlandhour

A5 To find an authentic experience, check out local Facebook groups you could join to find out when people meet to go walking, running, cycling or wild swimming. Locals know the best places to go and the best chippy for after! #scotlandhour #belocal

A5 Get involved in a community litter pick or help at a community garden. There you'll meet locals who have a passion for the area and will enrich you with local knowledge and history! Check out Urras Coimhearsnachd Shlèite and help on Tormore Forest #scotlandhour #belocal
