Ireland: a reflection

There are a few things I noticed in Ireland that I wish could be carried over to the United States. One thing I observed was that customer service was significantly greater in Ireland in every way possible. Another thing was that the people in general were more willing to help. A number of times when I clearly looked lost, someone …

Meeting Family

About a week ago…I was able to visit and meet a few distant relatives that I didn’t know existed a month ago. I spent the day visiting Tipperary (which isn’t as long away as the song makes it seem), my family’s church, my family’s cemetery, and farms owned by two of my dad’s distant cousins.

Along this journey I’ve seen the cultural differences and similarities and I loved it all. Just to know that my great grandpa (my poppy’s dad)and …

Let Me Be FREE Again!

Ireland…So much to say about this amazing place. I have seen so much and experienced the culture of something extremely beautiful. Being able to explore all of Belfast, Cork, and even Galway was a delight. Not enough words can express what I felt when I was at the Cliffs of Moher and the Giants Causeway. Being able to see a …

An Experience I Will Never Forget

This trip became so much more to me than just enjoying the Irish culture on spring break. It was a life changing experience that showed me how different the world is outside my little bubble of the North-Eastern states. The landscapes, castles, rolling flora, wild & farm life, extensive history, friendly locals & travelers, food, ambiance, night life, traditional views …
