What's the word for super green?

I'm just going to say it: Ireland is like a storybook.

Sometimes the cliches are accurate.

I was allowed to ride a retired top level event horse along a country road with stone walls around green fields filled with sheep and cows, went horseshoe hunting with a rambunctious Rhodesian Ridgeback and a spaniel who should properly be called a mer-dog.


I was feeling a little bit like a Canadian Sarah Brown #internationalvelvet . 

This is probably a good time to mention Workaway.info -- it's the only reason I'm able to be adventuring. The website allows hosts to list their needs and then workawayers(like me) can contact them to see if they might suit each other. If you like the idea of helping people while experiencing another part of the world, earning room and board with your time and energy, check out the website. 

On another note:

You know that saying "if you don't like the weather in Ireland, wait 5 minutes"? 

It's true.


Also, UK money is weird. Those are all £20 bills -- they are all different colours and have different designs.

Oh, and just so you know, none of the photos used in this post are filtered. Yeah.

  1. It is so great to live vicariously through you. Such a treat. Your writing is smart and entertaining and your pictures are beautiful. I am so excited that other people in the world are getting to know how amazing you are. And I miss you. They can coexist.
