Although I’ve been living in Ireland for over a decade, I’m ashamed to say I knew not much about its natural treasures before we embarked on our voyage. I traveled around the world, together with Sylwia we did a road trip in Montana in the US, lived at a stone’s throw from New York, spent few months on an incredible beautiful Block Island in New England in the US, took part in the safari in Kenya, visited Cuba and saw many other interesting places, we circumnavigated the entire Baltic Sea together with our daughters and crossed a good chunk of Canada by train with them. However, I would have spent only small amounts of time exploring around Ireland, mostly for short brakes. But now, I’m at peace and my heart is light as the Atlantic breeze, excited by the journey we’ve just made, and by the ones that lay ahead.
Already, I’m nostalgic for such amazing views like the one from the Coomikista Pass on the Ring of Kerry with the surrounding horizon stretching out infinitely and with Deenish Island and Scariff Island in the background.
It’s hard to resist the allure of the entire Wild Atlantic Way.
