Short trip to the west coast

Took the train to Galway from Dublin (3hours). Galway is a rather big seaside town with a charming downtown area and a good place to use as a base to explore the west coast of Ireland. I took a tour north to the Connemara area. You really feel like you are in Ireland ... sheep, stone walls, thatched corteges and people with such heavy accents you can not understand a word. The Kylemore Abbey is definitely worth the stop and the gardens are nice but not as impressive as Monet's. Weather not gr...

Breath of Fresh Air

... It was good for the night life, but a bit too many sequins and short dresses on girls who weren't meant to wear short dresses. We did however stay in an awesome hostel that provided laundry and a nice kitchen. We decided to cook a meal together and we made a great pasta that made up for the lack of other activity in Galway. <br><br>The next day a few of us returned to Dublin to sketch that area before heading to Scotland ...

Dont worry people, thats going to change soon. <br><br>Favourite quotes:<br><br>-Getting lost and asking a man delivering pop..."excuse me...do you know where Ennis street is?" and getting the response of "No, Im sorry, I dont speak English" in english. What???<br>

Ireland! (Part II)

... both regular stores and tourist shops. I never felt overly compelled to buy much, as Ireland is feeling the effects of the crisis hard and is ridiculously expensive. After we got our fill of shopping in, we again decided that we needed more authentic Irish Subway, so we got subs to go and headed back to the hostel to eat. <br><br>After everyone as fed and showered, we decided to do the Guinness Factory tour. It was kind of on ...

Cliffs of Moher

... up was the castle, we only had a quick photo op and didnt get to really venture inside. I was kind of dissapointed by this because I really love castles and wanted to explore, but the show must go on, so we all climed back into the bus and set off the the Aillwee caves. This cave was formed by glacial melt waters from an early ice age period, but the river that created it has since dissapeared and left "Ireland's premier showcave". A man named Jack ...

Goodbye England we had fun

... we kept getting lost so by the end of the day we were both a little tired but of course we still went out. We met this really cool Australian girl named Julia and the three of us went to the Caven Pub to have a few drinks. We got there kind of late so we missed the live band but we did end up meeting some really funny drunk British guys. We ended up chatting with them until the pub closed and then headed to another one were we had another ...

Connemara and My Future

Connemara: "The bus crosses the River Corrib and drives along the oceanfront suburbs of Galway. Smaller crowded houses with tiny lawns give way to larger ones with big lawns--where rich people live. The roofs are tiled with half-cylinder tiles overlapping, and with the white blocky fences this gives a Spanish or Mexican effect except for the tall chimneys. Many houses have palm trees (thin triangular leaves), which adds to the effect. These areas still just look like ...
