Beautiful Ireland in Five Images

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth October 17, 2013

We have been traveling around Ireland for the past two weeks and all I can say, Ireland has been good to us, once again. Since coming back, our household has turned more or less into a madhouse though. Our bags are partly unpacked. The washing machine is spinning like crazy. […]

While We Are Waiting: Visiting Connemara in Ireland

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth August 5, 2013

Warning: This post is really more about waiting than Ireland. If you can’t wait ’til Ireland, scroll down and hopefully you’ll find what you were looking for!  It might not be as grand an event as the arrival of the #RoyalBaby (there are no live cameras outside our apartment or […]

Day in Dublin

Traveling Slow in Ireland

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth October 30, 2012

When it comes to Ireland I don’t really know where to start. It is, or was, my home. A place I still call home even though I only make appearances once or twice a year. And a place where I could be called more of a tourist these days than […]

City I (still) love: Dublin

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth August 10, 2012

When talking about Dublin, I have to admit, I am very biased. I used to live in Dublin for almost five years when I studied there and Dublin to me means home. Home with relaxed atmosphere but great buzz combined with good pubs, cafes and restaurants. And lots to do […]
