Dublin

Last week me and Jamie ventured to Dublin for a few days. Everyone had warned us that it was going to be super expensive but we were pleasantly surprised as we didn't find it to be too costly! We spent most of the time wandering around the streets and down the river, we visited Trinity College, Christchurch Cathedral, Dublin Castle, the Ha' Penny bridge and St Stephens Green. We also spent one afternoon at the Guinness Storehouse which was really interesting and we even got to pour ourselves a pint of Guinness!

As Dublin is famous for Guinness we went to a few pubs to enjoy the local tipple, we even visited the oldest pub in Ireland, The Brazen Head Est.1198 which was cool. The nightlife in Dublin is mostly based in the Temple Bar area with bars, pubs, live music and lots of buskers. It's a very lively city and has a really good vibe and interesting mix of people.

Of course, like most of our trips, we ate a lot of food!! I had done a bit of research beforehand and we went to loads of funky places to eat. We had falafel, french pastries, ice cream, and burritos which were all incredible but the best place we went to was a vegetarian cafe called Cornucopia. We loved it so much we went twice!

The flights were quite cheap and only took half an hour to get there so I can see it being a city that I will most likely be returning to!
