Self-sufficiency

Gort, Ireland


Staying with Trevor in Gort was wonderful! He lives nearly completely self-sufficiently, with his own windmill that generates electricity, and he grows most of his food, makes his own bread, and basically leads a really good life in the middle of forests.

John, another couch surfer, had a car and we went around to see the Cliffs of Moher and the Burren - absolutely amazing!!! But we got charged 6 euros each just to see them (even though I tried jumping out the car before we got to The Entrance, there was a guy there who told on me).

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Ireland and I'm honestly sad to be leaving!
