A Real Irish Pub Crawl (in Ireland, they just call 'em pubs)

A Real Irish Pub Crawl (in Ireland, they just call 'em pubs)

Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, your GypsyNesters take a look at some real Irish pubs, you know, the kind actually in Ireland—so we suppose that they're simply called pubs.

Doing Dublin in Double Time

We didn’t have a pot full o’ time to discover Dublin, we had but a day to discover her charms. 

But we made the most of this fair city - we learned how to pour a perfect pint at the Guinness Academy, stormed her castle, ate native food, made a daring escape, and took a peek at Molly Malone (where exactly was David looking?)... CONTINUE READING >>

Ever Wonder How Our Adventure Began? Guess We've Always Been a Little Crazy!

Have you ever wondered how we met? 

A one-night stand (not ours!), a beat-up old (heavy metal) car named the Sharkmobile, and the US Postal Service delivered a one-three punch we couldn't ignore.

It might not be the most romantic story and, the odds most definitely were NOT in our favor, but... CONTINUE READING >>

Is the Food Good in Ireland?... and Our Life Reimagined

Is the Food Good in Ireland?

Before arriving on the Emerald Isle, our idea of eating in Ireland fell in the corned beef and cabbage, Irish stew, meat and potatoes line of thinking.

Living on the Edge of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way... and Beijing's Summer Palace

Where is the edge of the world?

In the literal sense there obviously cannot be one on this sphere we inhabit, but figuratively, and also in a very real way, several spots where the last bit of land holds forth against the sea certainly feel like the brink.

The Dingle Peninsula on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way thoroughly captures this sensation... CONTINUE READING >>
