This week, I visited Ireland with my room- mates. It was a really special trip for me because my Dad’s whole side of the family went there on vacation a few years ago and I was unable to go, so to be able to experience it while abroad was really amazing. We explored the streets of Dublin and discovered the best spots by talking to locals and wandering through the city. We also went out of the city on Saturday and headed to a small village called Howth where we hiked a cliff and got a spectacular view of the water. It was an incredible experience and I recommend it to anyone planning on visiting Dublin. It was a weekend full of fun and adventure.
