It’s not your typical ‘we met on Tinder’ story - Man who sold everything to trek UK coastline falls in love

An army veteran sold all his belongings to walk 16,000 miles along the entire UK coastline – and met his girlfriend along the way. Daniel McNeil, 26, packed up his home in Dumfries, Dumfries and Galloway, and sold everything before starting the epic trek in March last year.

Just two months into the walk Daniel met girlfriend Charlotte Brook, 25, and the couple have spent the past year exploring Scotland. The pair met in Dunoon, Argyll and Bute, where Charlotte offered to show Daniel around.

But an afternoon turned into four days together and Charlotte decided to quit her job in a hotel last November to join Daniel on the walk. The pair, who are currently in Edinburgh, walk around 15 miles a day and camp in a tent along the way.
