Hello everyone,
I (23F) am coming from Montreal to Ireland for 2 weeks at the end of June, and am looking for any advice.
I am interested in the history, culture, and nature of Ireland. I would also love to learn more about activism/collectivism in Ireland while there (solidarity collectives, community gardens, screenings, etc).
Usually, I am pretty happy with just walking around, sometimes meeting people, and observing.
Here is my loose plan so far, along with some small notes as to my reasoning for choosing them:
Fly into Dublin airport, bus to Sligo right away.
-Sligo: 3 nights
I was here as a kid, and I remember thinking that Sligo was special.
-Galway: 3 nights
Need to visit a Gaeltacht and the Aran Islands would be nice to visit.
-Limerick: 3 nights
This is where my family is from.
-Dingle: 3 nights
I have always had a special interest in the biodiversity and landscapes of Dingle.
-Dublin: 4 nights
The only real plan I have is to visit Kilmainham Gaol.
note: I plan to bus/walk everywhere. Bus Eireann seems to have good connections between most of these places, aside from Dingle, where I have read that there are other buses that make it accessible without car?
If you have any ideas for me, please feel free to share.
Thank you
