From navigating the roads (and dodging sheep!) to environmentalism to earlier bar closing times, to the ever-changing (but not hideous) weather, we'll share the things we didn't expect to find in and about the Emerald Isle, both north and south of the border. We hiked quite a way to the natural sights, found coffee surprisingly plentiful in these tea-drinking countries, learned a bit about the uses of peat, and found some helpful tips to pass along for those seeing the sights who might have mobility issues. We also talked with locals about where THEY travel to on vacation!

Find links below to some of the things we shared in this video, including two other YouTubers who vlog about travels in Ireland that you might like if you enjoy our episodes!
