Hi there everyone, it is time for a Sarah update! I know it's been quite a while since my last blog but I have people to see, places to go! Well, sort of, but enough excuses; I have a lot of adventures to talk about. So first off, my family trip to Greece was spectacular and I am devastated that it was over so quickly. Spending 10 glorious days in the sun was such a blessing after such a horrible cold and rainy summer in Ireland, plus seeing my family after 6 months of being away didn't hurt either. We spent one and a half days in Athens and then the rest of the time on the lovely island of Crete. I have to say, while I definitely would not pick Greece as my home, it ... read more

Well, another week gone and it's officially (as of 3 days ago) my third month anniversary of living in Ireland! I think I may bake a cake tomorrow to celebrate.....I can't believe that the time has been going by so fast and although I still have plenty of time, I'm starting to hit something similar to a "mid-trip" crisis. I'm frantic to go see and do as much as I can, but seeing as I sprained my ankle this week (more on that later!) I clearly need to slow it down a bit. I somehow got the notion that time was running out and I needed to do more, see more and this is the result. Never fear, my ankle is already starting to look slightly better and I'm taking it easy; resting, icing and pretty ... read more

Hey everyone, here is this week's blog which I know you have been anticipating so eagerly! Haha ok so I'm hyping myself up a bit, but I definitely had a pretty cool weekend. I've been working a lot during the week and now that I'm full-time I'm so tired that I hardly do anything exciting during the week, borringgg. I am definitely making up for it on the weekends however and trying to cram as much sight-seeing as possible into two days. I seriously need a vacation from my vacations! So this week Colleen and I decided to do an awesome tour of Galway and the surrounding countryside and it definitely turned into an epic adventure! The forecast all week was looming with pouring rain and horrible weather, but we decided to persevere and take a ... read more

Good morning to everyone, I hope you all had a fantastic Easter! I definitely missed you all, but I had a pretty neat weekend; my first real trip in Ireland! Me and a few friends decided to go up to Northern Ireland, which is part of the UK and do a tour around some of the cities. It was definitely filled with a lot of excitement (which I’ll get into later) and some of the things we got to see were breathtaking. You can genuinely see why people are so fascinated with Ireland and why the country is so steeped in mystery and legend. Its coastline and country are some of the most beautiful places I have ever travelled to in the world and I think I am absolutely falling in love with Ireland! The city ... read more

Hi everyone! I'm sorry I haven't been particularly diligent this week with writing this blog, but work has been keeping me really busy! I've officially ended my first week in my new apartment and it is seriously great. I can walk pretty much anywhere in Dublin from the location and it really does have some neat views. Of course I posted pictures, but please...hold the comments on the mess haha, there's three of us living here and we cleaned the day after. Promise. So my job has been panning out really well and I'm enjoying temping more than I expected. I'm working for AIB Investment Managers and basically I'm assisting with the printing and preparation of their end of quarter financial reports. It's a really excellent place to work; the people are friendly, the office is ... read more
