Ireland, famous for its green countryside, old churches, the potato famine, Irish dancing, St Patricks Day, Leprechauns and of course, Guinness!
Dublin is Ireland’s capital city with so much to offer from the famous Trinity College to the favourite tourist attraction, the Guinness Storehouse.

Guinness Storehouse, you know your getting close as you can smell it! The strong smell of...

If you love a good concert then the Dublin New Year Concert is always the best way to bring in the New Year. I saw Madness on my New Year trip to Dublin.
