Kinsale is such a beautiful little town at the coast of County Cork. I think when it comes to The Wild Atlantic Way, Cork gets a small bit left out of the party. I think this is partly due to it being at the end of the route and also with the others such as…Continue Reading “A Weekend In County Cork”
My friends and I were planning on taking a trip to Malta and thought, you know what, why not explore the Aran Islands off Ireland instead?! So with that in mind we ended up staying in Doolin, Clare for two nights and ventured out to the largest of the Aran Islands, Inis Mor on the…Continue Reading “Exploring Doolin & The Aran Islands”
I absolutely love to travel but I don’t think I will ever call any other country my home. I’ve dabbled in living abroad (sharing a one bedroom apartment with nine other girls, so not the best situation..) but those experiences never led me to believe I would prefer my life somewhere other than Ireland. I…Continue Reading “Twelve Reasons To Visit Ireland”
I start getting into the Christmas spirit pretty much the second Halloween is over. With a trip to Christmas markets in a European city on the horizon. I’m heading away in the first week of December I am really getting into the Christmas mood! Christmas markets have such a magical aura about them. The lights,…Continue Reading “Irelands Best Christmas Markets”
Although I was in Athens for longer than 24 hours (3.5 days to be exact!) I was working for two of the days and the entirety of the last day was spent in the airport for our flight home – so the only day we really had to play around with was Sunday. Since I…Continue Reading “24 Hours In Athens”
It’s not that often that I go to the same place more than once (shoutout to Split and Vegas for making that extremely small list of mine!) but one place I have been going year after year is Electric Picnic. (so much so I even lost my job because of it one year, but, that is…Continue Reading “Irelands Best Festival”
The Irish Times published a piece during the week entitled ‘Why I’m Glad I Can’t Afford To Live In Dublin‘. This article has somewhat split the country with half of people claiming it to be an awful display of journalism, while the other half finding it to be an accurate depiction of Dublin as a…Continue Reading “RE: Why I’m Glad I Can’t Afford To Live In Dublin”
It’s no secret that my favourite place in Dublin is Howth (I mention it here AND here after all!) so I am always happy to spend a Sunday doing the Cliff Walk in Howth (and getting a sneaky fish & chips after to reward myself) to soak up the amazing coastal views. Before moving to Dublin, I…Continue Reading “Howth Cliff Walk”
On a recent trip to Estonia, I was adamant to visit Helsinki while I was there. These two countries are surprisingly only an hour and a half apart by boat when you take the Linda Line Express. This ferry which costs €35 return is for passengers only, but there are plenty other ferry lines which…Continue Reading “A Day In Helsinki”
The Cliffs of Moher are located at the edge of The Burren region in County Clare, Ireland.

At €6 per person (unless you get your passengers to get out…Continue Reading “The Cliffs of Moher”
