Good craic is what it's all about

So I hitchhiked yesterday. And I survived. And I loved it. Leaving Leighlinbridge was a bit sad, as I had a really great time there with Aileen and the town is absolutely charming. We went out the previous night to a little pub with Aileen's friend, Ben - a wonderful guy who is really great...

Tiny villages are awesome

So I went to Seomra Spraoi (the hangout I mentioned before - pronounced 'Sharma Spree') and randomly joined in a few workshops - one on how to make your own moisturiser and one on trade and climate change. Both were really interesting and I got to meet some more amazing people. Then the gig...

Where no one knows my name

Okay, so the massive-big-trip-where-I’m-going-to-see-everything has begun! I survived the packing experience with only a mildly traumatic sensation of ‘there’s something I’m forgetting’. First aid kit, tampons (sorry to all male readers), shampoo, a travel towel, a compass (always necessary,...

Is the meaning of travel to me

To me, traveling is paying an early visit to the Schroeder Casino in and gambling in the Gutierrez Casino in on a propitious morning. To me, traveling is a visit to the Campos Opera House in on an admirable night, entertainment in the Herman Casino in on a remarkable evening and an afternoon...

Day 3 (Continued)

Instead, however, we took a trip to the medieval town of Kilkenny, with it's wonderfully restored castle and small streets and alleys.

Day 3 (Continued)

The trip back to Dublin took us to the Rock of Dunamase, the ruins of a Twelfth Century castle, that we climbed about for a while before returning to Dublin.

St.Patricks Cathedral
