Everyone loves a good, relaxing weekend – and my last weekend was just that. I had the pleasure of spending one night in Monart, a ‘destination spa’ down in Wexford. Nestled away at the edge of Enniscorthy this five-star hotel is a little slice of paradise. I spent a Friday night here recently as a…Continue Reading “A Night at Monart Destination Spa”
Growing up in West Limerick, I always spent at least a week every Summer down in Kerry. While my parents beach town of choice was Ballyheigue back in the day, I now go to Ballybunnion when I get the chance. I hadn’t been down here in almost two years so my friend and I decided…Continue Reading “An Evening In Kerry”
While I might actually work in e-commerce, I’m not the most tech-savvy person around. That being said my phone is my savior when I am abroad and I rely on it heavily for pretty much everything! The little gadget is my sat nav, my translator, my camera, my everything pretty much.. and I suppose I…Continue Reading “My Favourite Travel Apps”
As spoken about previously, my first experience of Spain wasn’t exactly a good one. Different things appeal to different people, and personally I love the charm of Eastern Europe and find that charm is sometimes lacking in some of the larger central European cities – like Barcelona. I visited here with my friends and while…Continue Reading “Discovering Barcelona”
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”
Our generation is filled to the brim with different technologies. From cars that can steer themselves to apps on our phone, there is no escaping that technology has consumed parts of our every day lives. If, like me, you love Instagram – you will find that your days of scrolling are filled with slightly unrealistic…Continue Reading “Instagram VS Reality”
When you go on holidays there are always certain things a person looks for. Some people live for new food while others won’t step foot off a plane that has weather under 25 degrees. It’s really interesting to see how different people enjoy different things when they are away. Personally, I don’t mind venturing somewhere colder…Continue Reading “The Recipe For A Great Holiday”
If you had ever asked me about recommendations for Clare before I would have been very quick to say The Cliffs of Moher, Doolin, Liscannor, etc. The last time I had explored anywhere else in Clare was with my parents years ago and having finally gone there last weekend I’m really sad that it didn’t…Continue Reading “Discovering County Clare”
Recently I ticked an activity off my ever growing to-do list and walked the Cuilcagh Legnabrocky Trail in Fermanagh, also known as the Stairway to Heaven. What was meant to be a day trip to do this mountain walk ended up becoming a night away – and little did I know that I was going…Continue Reading “Staying On Lusty Beg Island”
When you hear the words Stairway to Heaven immediately Led Zepplin comes to mind. The Cuilcagh Legnabrocky (say that 3 times fast!) trail in the Cuilcagh Mountains in Fermanagh has also been given the nickname ‘Stairway to Heaven’ and for a very good reason. The Cuilagh Mountains which lay on the border of Cavan and…Continue Reading “The Stairway To Heaven”
