As usual time flies, I thought I had plenty of time to work on my eight years in Ireland blog post, and the date is literally round the corner. Pressure to meet the deadline will hopefully do its magic, fingers and toes crossed because I have less than twenty-four hours left.

Time does fly, doesn’t it? It has been two months since my last blog, which means I have not fulfilled my plan of getting a blog published every month of 2024: there was none in April.

The Emerald Isle, its landscapes!
I could not have a series of blogs about the amazing Emerald Isle without writing about its landscapes. Captivating, breath-taking and a soul haven.
