Frank and I recently moved to an apartment much closer to town. We were living a bit away from the city, not too far as only a 15 minute train or 30 minute bus away, but definitely still slightly removed from the city. At first I was super bummed we had to move, but having […]
If we rewind three years ago thinking back to a visit I had in Deer Park, a lovely spot in Howth, the forest was full of color and joy and light. I’ve come to think of this place often and in my head I keep referring to it as the magic floor. This year I […]
Guys it’s been a hundred years. Okay that’s drastic, but a solid year and a half. I kind of forgot about this space, but then I remembered those cute little balloons, how nice it was to have a little diary about a trip I loved and want to remember, so here I am. Trying again. […]
Today I’m gonna talk to you about this sweet little seaside village about 40 minutes north of Dublin city, Skerries. It’s still in Dublin county, but it reaches quite far north that it’s getting closer and closer to county Meath. Frank and I had been to Skerries one other time before, but it was right […]
There are a few places in Dublin that I go to all of the time. Bullock Harbour in Dalkey is one of them.I forget to take pictures because I’m by there so often and sometimes after you’ve visited a place once its magic is a little bit gone. I always am way less likely to […]
About two and a half years ago, Frank and I moved from smack dab in the middle of Dublin city (granted not a great area but the location! ideal) to one of the little villages a short bit out of the main city centre. At first I missed the buzz of the city and was […]
In the hopes of saving a bit of cash and being a bit healthier, I’ve been bringing my lunch in to work with me. This is absolutely not revolutionary and has been really great, but at the same time I’ve been missing getting out of the office for an hour and taking a break from […]
One of my favorite things to do around Dublin when we have a sliver of good weather (even an hour will do!) is to hop on the DART and go for a walk. Considering there’s about 20 nice stops along the coast, I feel at this stage I’ve done a lot of them. Without a […]
A couple of weeks ago we went and stayed at our friends’ grandmother’s cottage out in Connemara. I still completely don’t understand how Connemara is laid out and I forget pretty much every town name there, but all I know is I have some of the best times there. It’s part of the Wild Atlantic […]
A couple months ago back in May, I went on a little solo expedition and took a little day trip up to Howth to see Deer Park. I have been seeing Deer Park posted seemingly everywhere, specifically for the rhododendron blooms (like here and here) and was over the moon that I actually remembered in time […]
