My travel experiences in Ireland
Growing up in Liverpool, I was just a hop, skip, and a jump from Ireland.
This meant that the Emerald Isle was more than just a neighboring country; it was an easy summer holiday destination.
As kids, we would board the ferry from Holyhead in Anglesey, North Wales, embarking on two week-long outdoor adventures. We fished, explored and invariably got wet!
As an adult, I’ve returned to the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland many times.
The allure of Ireland’s rugged coastlines, historic landmarks, and warm hospitality never fades. It’s no wonder that Ireland remains a favorite among my clients seeking immersive travel experiences.
