After a midnight train to Cork, Ireland, it was time to tackle the mean streets of Cork for a late night walk to the hostel. I'm exaggerating of course but you get what I mean. Our midnight walk to the hostel in Cork began great and then it started to rain. And then we moved faster to get out of the rain to the hostel and promptly got lost. It d...

Hello Everyone!!! I hope you are all having a wonderful Monday, I am as it is almost over but for most of you it is just beginning so haha! This weekend was very fun, a few friends and I rented a car and decided to go up to Cork for the weekend, which is one of the largest cities in Ireland located in County Cork. We left after work on Friday wi...

Cork, Blarney, Killarney, Ennis and some big holiday on March 17th Okay, it has been awhile since I logged an entry. It was harder to find an internet cafe in Ireland in the smaller towns, and I was too busy sampling local Guinness anyway. From Dublin I drove to Cork. It took about 4 hours to drive. During this trip my eyes have certainly been o...

The initial plan was pretty straightforward - get to Dubrovnik, spend a week there, and fly home. That's been changing little by little, for a variety of reasons. The main one is budget. Direct flights into Dubrovnik cost too much, so I went looking around for other intermediate destinations. We could fly from Cork to Stansted (London) and then ...

The first is glass collecting in a pub that shuts at 2am, and I end up finishing about 3am... and leave by about 4am. The other job is the one I was looking for, another internet cafe. It's open 24/7 (all the time) and I'm...

Well, today we left Killarney at 10, and made a 15 minutes stop at Torc Waterfall in Killarney National Park. It was very pretty! Then we headed to Cork. Nothing was open and it was a waste of time. Of course we had 2 full hours there! Then we headed to Waterford (Crystal). The exhibit was very nice. I didn't buy anything- it was too expensive. ...

Our next stop was Cork, in the south of the country. The biggest highlight: it didn't rain here! I absolutely loved Cork, even though it's tiny. Somehow, with only 240,00 people, had such a cosmopolitan air about it. The city just had this great cool vibe about it. It's also where my ancestors hail from.
