Howth is a small fishing village and most north eastern Dublin’s suburb. Accidentally, it’s the best place in town to buy fresh fish. Just a couple of days after our move to Ireland (so, some 2.5 years ago) I was on the mission to find fish and prepare a nice dinner. Since it was less…

Christ Church Cathedral – One of my favorite spots in Dublin
Those regular and careful readers might remember that I like churches, cathedrals, castles, towers, and bridges… Actually, I like big buildings in general. Still, if someone told me that one of my favourite places in Dublin will be Christchurch cathedral I would laugh. Loud. “The Church” maybe (as it’s a pub) but not the proper…

Things you should see in Ireland: Check out why we’ll visit the Ring of Kerry again! :)
One of the most famous touristy routes in Ireland is The Ring of Kerry, and it’s considered as “The Best of Ireland”. At least people we know and we met so far told us so. Our original plan was to follow the Ring route, but our host in Dingle, Julí explained us some things. Majority…

Things you should see in Ireland: County Kerry, Dingle, Dingle Peninsula and Slea Head Drive
We’ve finally organized a few days to explore Ireland. Well, we’ve seen things in 2013 and 2014 but nothing outside the Dublin area yet this year. 🙂 As a reward we got three sunny, almost summer days to explore County Kerry. County Kerry is considered as a nicest part of Ireland and when people talk…

The story of the shortest February ever
Hey it’s me! 🙂 I had a really busy February with a lot of changes in life. I’ve changed my work two weeks ago, and that had a huge impact on my writing. First of all, I had to properly say goodbye to my ex colleagues, and they were extremely nice to me. One team…

12 pubs of Christmas
If you recall my last year’s text about Christmas in Ireland you might remember that I mentioned a certain thing called “12 Pubs of Christmas”. Well, let me explain that to you in some more details. Last year we were fresh, just arrived to Ireland, and we saw a bunch of happy people weirdly dressed…

A good year in Ireland – #dublin365
I was not sure if starting this article with a joke about the difference between a tire and 365 used rubbers is appropriate, so I decided to at least use slightly modified title of “A good year” film for this one. A year ago we’ve left home from a foggy, rainy and sad Trieste train…

September in Dublin or how not to spend whole paycheck in Ireland this month :)
Hi there 🙂 Before I start, you might have noticed that there are some additions on the blog. Well, there were people trying to contact me, ask questions, and such, so I created a facebook page dedicated to this blog, added a newsletter part, so you can subscribe here and like me there and get…

GAA Hurling i GAA Football – more than a sport
Before our move to Ireland I was familiar with the existence of hurling and different footballs, but never actually had a chance to see the whole game and get hooked. 🙂 This post will be nothing new for Irish readers, but it might be interesting to others not familiar with Irish sports. Irish sports are…

How I rediscovered pork in a pulled pork meal
In my last post I have mentioned that I’ve discovered a new magical sandwich. Well, it’s not sandwich per se but it’s more the meat that goes in it. Those who know me in person and for more than two years are familiar with the fact that “I don’t eat pork!”. Well… Being from Croatia…
