Irish Travel Blog
This year has been a brilliant year for me travel wise. While none of my trips were that long, I did manage to get abroad more times than any other year before while also working full time. Honestly, the reason I was able to do this wasn’t because I stopped treating myself in any way…Continue Reading “My Top Three Destinations In 2017”
“A year from now you may wish you had started today.” This quote could definitely not be more true. Although I know I predominantly write about travelling – which this post is definitely still applicable, but not solely focused on, I felt like I had to post this (because blogs are all about writing what…Continue Reading “4 Ways To Start Achieving Your Goals”
After travelling through eight countries through Eastern Europe two things became very apparent to me. Why I love travelling, but also why I love living in Ireland. During my time away there were a few things I never before realized about Ireland that I love, and here they are: Taxi Men Will Never Harass You…Continue Reading “Really Strange Things That I Love About Ireland”
When travelling between two countries, it is always great if you can optimize your time and travel during the night to avoid wasting precious daylight hours.

I know that festivals aren’t some peoples thing – too many people, too loud, too drunk, but for me I look at it as a place…Continue Reading “Why You Should Go To A Music Festival At Least Once In Your Life”
Electric Picnic is hands down my favourite festival in Ireland, and possibly my favourite festival in general. Electric Picnic is a music and arts festival held every year in Stradbally, Co.Laois in Ireland which brings around 70,000 through the gates. It is as much a festival for older crowds and families as it is for…Continue Reading “The Guide To Electric Picnic”
Niagara Falls is one of the most breathtaking places that you could ever visit. At over 160 feet tall and water constantly gushing over the edge it really is a sight for sore eyes. I got the pleasure of visiting here when I was staying in New York last summer. We rented a car and…Continue Reading “Guide To The Niagara Falls”
Being from Ireland it felt only right that I went to visit our one and only theme park ‘Tayto Park’ in Ashbourne county Meath (30 minutes outside of Dublin). Although ‘Theme Park’ isn’t exactly the best description for this attraction because although there are roller coasters and other rides, one half of the park is…Continue Reading “Ireland’s Only Theme Park”
I constantly get asked how many holidays I get at work, how am I allowed to go away so often, how do I pay for it all, etc. The truth is I have a 9-5:30 Monday to Friday job with just about 4 weeks holidays to take during the year. For me, I don’t look…Continue Reading “Traveling The World With A Full Time Job”
