We knew we wanted to make it to Ashford Castle at

We knew we wanted to make it to Ashford Castle at some point during the trip so when we saw that it was only about a 45 minute drive from Galway, we hopped in the car and made our way over for some lunch! We had our hearts set on eating at one of the restaurants inside the castle but unfortunately those are only available for guests staying on property. Lucky enough, they do have one restaurant open to the public called Cullen’s at the Cottage situated just outside the gates. Guys, this was hands down one of the best meals we had in Ireland! The seafood was so fresh and the ambiance was really cozy and inviting. I definitely recommend making a reservation as it is quite small. Such a great find!

We spent the final two nights of our Ireland road

We spent the final two nights of our Ireland road trip in Galway! After our day at the cliffs and the drive over to Galway, we spent the rest of the day relaxing at the very quirky Twelve Hotel. They have a really cozy bar and really good food! The next day, we set out and wandered around the infamous Quay Street and walked through the beautiful Galway Cathedral.

Instagram vs. Reality: Cliffs of Moher edition.
—————————————
Of course a trip to Ireland isn’t complete without a visit to the Cliffs of Moher! You can’t help but be in complete awe as soon as these cliffs come into view. It really is as amazing as they say! And windy. It’s very windy.

After a short but sweet stay in Killarney National

After a short but sweet stay in Killarney National Park, we made a little detour to a cute little port town called Dingle. Here, the most famous resident is actually a Dolphin named Fungie! Unfortunately he did not make an appearance while we were walking the harbor. On the plus side, we did get some of the most fresh fish and chips (obviously) and some yummy ice cream at Murphy’s! I would also recommend to keep driving up the peninsula to Coumeenoole Beach where you’ll get to witness one of the most beautiful beaches in Ireland! They say if you stick you’re feet in the water, you leave a part of your soul so that you’ll come back one day to collect it. Back in 2013, I did not brave the water as it was freezing and raining, but I was still able to make it back to Ireland even if we did run out of time to make it all the way back to Coumeenoole.

I had travelled around southern Ireland once befor

I had travelled around southern Ireland once before back in 2013 while I was studying abroad in Barcelona, so as soon as I heard we were going on this trip, I knew right away I wanted to show everyone Killarney National Park. This picture doesn’t even do it justice. It’s so lush and green everywhere you look it really is quite incredible! I can only imagine what the park looks like on a sunny day. We chose to stay at The Lake Hotel and I’m so glad we settled on this gem. It is a refurbished 1820’s manor right on the lake. It had such a homey feel, the friendliest staff, yummy Irish food and we were lucky enough to spend the night next to the fire listening to an Irish folk singer. It really was exactly how you would expect a traditional Irish bed and breakfast experience to be. We only stayed one night as we had much more to explore but we all agreed we would love to come back one day. I couldn’t recommend Killarney National Park and The Lake hotel enough!

After three days in Dublin, we started off on our

After three days in Dublin, we started off on our epic road trip around Southern Ireland! Yes, you read that right, we rented a car and faced the extremely narrow and terrifying roads head on. Literally. And by we, I mean my brother drove and we had the most trusty navigator beside him (again, not me). Our first destination out of Dublin was Killarney National Park but first, we made a quick pit stop on the way to kiss the Blarney Stone! It is said the stone bestows the gift of eloquence but I have yet to determine if this has actually worked given I still stumble over my words in important meetings 😂 Of course by the time we reached Cork, it had been raining for quite some time but luckily enough it had stopped once we reached the castle resulting in us having the whole place to ourselves for a while! There are some beautiful views as you walk up to the top and of course, the history of the castle is quite interesting!

Well let’s just say I was incredibly humbled about my book collection after walking through this beaut 😍 I can’t even wrap my head around the fact there are around 250,000 books in this library! And I mean, we also can’t ignore the fact that this place is giving off some serious Harry Potter vibes 😉.

I think one of my favorite parts about wandering the streets of Dublin were all the beautiful flowers displayed from all the windows. They brought so much charm to the narrow streets and alleys. I remember thinking, “Wow, why don’t we do this back home??” I didn’t even get half way through that thought before I remembered that we’re consistently in a drought in California 😂 I guess we will just have to stick with succulents!
