I still have plenty of Tassie content to come but am also super keen to get all the Ireland blog posts out and complete. Almost there I promise! In my research before travelling to Ireland, I came across a photo of an abandoned building with some rugged cliffs behind it and promptly added it to … More Gleniff Horseshoe, Sligo
If I had to pick a highlight of our Wild Atlantic Way road-trip around Ireland, I’d have to say Achill Island would be it. With just 128km of coastline, it’s like a miniature Ireland all wrapped up in one spot. As keen hikers and lovers off all things bumpy in the landscape, Achill offers some … More Achill Island
We continued our journey around the Wild Atlantic Way and headed for the beauty of County Galway. Given our tight schedule, we unfortunately didn’t have time to explore County Clare and the Burren. They’ll have to wait for another trip in the future. After stopping for a bit of a nap on the way, we … More Inis Mór and Connemara
After the wonderful sights of Bray Head and the Kerry Cliffs, it was time to head on to our next AirBnB for the trip. We were scheduled to stay at Killorglin, home to the Puck Fair, one of the oldest in Ireland. We drove into Killarney and spent a few hours wandering the streets and … More Killarney and the Dingle Peninsula
After being spoiled with the beautiful landscapes of County Cork, our roadtrip continued into the Kingdom, County Kerry. The Irish landscape has been made famous by Hollywood and a lot of that romanticism that is talked about comes from the classic movies of the 50’s and 60’s that made this area famous. Ask most younger … More Kerry Cliffs & Bray Head

Something we’d oft associate with Switzerland or Austria or North America and other alpine places with proper mountains and genuine altitude that can leave you out of breath, exists on the little island where I was born. Which way do cable cars travel? Up right? And down again of … More Dursey Island
I have Netflix to thank for the very first stop on our main adventure. We watched a hilarious Irish movie earlier this year called The Young Offenders. It’s about two young scallywags from Cork who go on a big adventure to find a bale of cocaine washed ashore from a drug trafficking boat. It’s not … More Three Castle Head
FINALLY getting around to starting the blog posts from our big trip and there’s going to be a few! We started our big trip in my home country of Ireland where we started off in north county Dublin at my parents’ home in Loughshinny. Just up the road there is a beautiful castle and gardens … More Ardgillan Gardens
Been a while since I’ve posted any major adventures on the blog or new images on my Instagram account. That’s all about to change over the next 5 weeks! Tomorrow morning we set off to Ireland for my brother’s wedding and then go on a 2 week roadtrip around Ireland. After that, we head to … More The Big Trip: Ireland, Iceland & Hong Kong
I just realised I never uploaded a post from that wonderful trip I took with my parents just before moving to Tasmania, you know…..back in March 2015!! Whoops! My parents (the wonderful people that they are, Hi Mom! Hi Dad!) offered to drive me down early and do a little road trip around the Ring … More Dingle Peninsula: County Kerry, Ireland
