Dublin, day 4

Hello there,

Today I didn't really spend time in Dublin, for I had to go to the airport quite early. But I did want to share the lovely view I had this morning - and, of course, as usually my new travel trophy!

Flying back to the Netherlands at 12:45. See you later! ✈

Dublin, day 3

Hi there!

Today I planned to go to Howth. It was about 45 minutes with the train. I didn't mind the ride, because the sight was so beautiful!  When I arrived at Howth, I was stunned by the beautiful view. Howth is located at a coast with a very wild sea. The smell of fresh fish and the salty sea welcomes you when you set your first step out of the train.
I went hiking and took a tour of four hours. Quite long, but I had the most amazing views up there. This is a place I will never forget.

When I got back on the train I was so tired I decided to just sit a while longer. Somehow I winded up at the National Museum of Ireland, so I went inside. It was a very nice museum - admission free.

In the evening I went back to Temple Bar and had a pizza with a Guinness. At my last night I just spent wandering through the streets until my legs got tired. What a beautiful city it is. I'm really going to miss it.

Dublin, day 2

What a lovely weather today! I went for a city tour organized by Isaacs Hostel. The guide was so funny and while I'm usually not so fond of tours this one was very nice. The tour guide, Rex, was funny and knew just how to pass on his knowledge of the beautiful city. I went to Temple bar as well and afterwards I enjoyed a Guinness on my own. What a lovely, charming place this is!
I also bought a book on Irish fairy and folktales 🍀

Dublin, day 1

Hello! 

So far so good. I've arrived in Dublin and walked a little bit through the center before actually going to the hostel. I'm sharing the room with 5 others, I'm very curious how it will be! My first impressions are: what a beautiful city, a little bit similar to Amsterdam (lots of pubs and lots of people smoking weed 😉)

Have a good one!
