☘️ I'm back from Ireland ☘️

And had an absolutely amazing time. It's an overwhelmingly beautiful country and I had so much fun with my friends. ❤️ Here are some photo highlights (for Dublin see my other post).

View of the Irish Sea and Wicklow Mountains from Dalkey Hill

We visited many castles, some more haunted than others 👻

A vegan scone and chai latte in Galway 🥰

We climbed Diamond Hill in Connemara National Park 💪

Found beautiful flowers in the rocky landscape of the Burren

Drove the Ring of Kerry, along with two other peninsula loop drives on different days, and saw loads of gorgeous sights along the way, like at this stop we made at Waterville

Even the view from the rental car was breathtaking most of the time!

Due to weather conditions we did not make it to the top of Devil's Ladder, but it was still a great, if wet, adventure!

Oh and we stayed in some incredible Airbnbs (this one used to be a gatehouse 🤩)

We also went on an AWESOME eco marine tour, but I'll make a separate post about that.

So yeah, I'll miss Ireland, but I'm also glad to be back home. 😊 Time to rest now 😴😴
