Our Ireland trip actually started off pretty rocky due to a flight delay and airline debacle but that story is probably for another blog post. Basically, we lost 2 days from our trip due to the delay and flight changes,…

Not all tours are bad, in fact sometimes tours work out better than doing a self-guided visit. Logistically and financially speaking. But for other situations like staying in Dublin there are many places you could easily visit on your own…
It doesn’t seem to matter if we’re in our home state or traveling abroad, somehow we are always taking day trips. Staying in Dublin gave us many opportunities to venture out of the city and explore more of Ireland. Belfast…
We love easy day trips and being able to get out and explore places outside of our main destination. Howth is another easy place to visit from Dublin. If you have extra time to spare and want to see other…
Who knew that I would be a mother with a kid who loves to explore the world at such a young age! Tristan was seriously a big team player on our Ireland trip. Despite early mornings, tired legs from walking,…
We love spending a few days on a trip to do some sightseeing outside of the city. Trim is an hour away from Dublin by bus, which makes it an easy day trip. Getting There It’s super easy (and cheaper)…
We were hosted by Titanic Belfast, as always opinions are our own. The partly filled lifeboat standing by about 100 yards away never came back. Why on Earth they never came back is a mystery. How could any human being…
We were hosted by Crumlin Road Gaol, as always opinions are our own. Jail is scary. Not that we’ve ever been in jail before, but I’m sure it probably is scary. Especially an old one like Crumlin Road Gaol. We…

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of…
If I had only one word to describe County Wicklow in Ireland, that word would be: Amazing. I know it’s such a cliché word to use – but seriously, Wicklow is one of those truly amazing places! Every turn and…
I remember trying to carve Jack-O-Lanterns as a child. It was fun and messy but as an adult and lover of culture, I now question almost every tradition’s origin. Where did Jack-O-Lanterns originate and why were they created? And who…
St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated worldwide each year on March 17. It is an especially large celebration in the United States. Boston, Massachusetts held the very first St. Patrick’s Day parade in 1737. To this date, New York hosts the…
I am a big fan of Game of Thrones. I know it’s a show with fictional locations, however the film locations are definitely real places. After searching the internet, I came across some Game of Thrones film locations that you…
