Last week was my birthday. And last year, I wrote a post called 20 Things I Learned During 20. You guys seemed to like it, ya crazies, so this year in honour of 22, I present you with 11 things I learned in Ireland and 11 things I learned in life over this past year living abroad.

I recently spent a few days in Wicklow with my boyfriend's mother. She showed me some of her favourite spots from growing up herself in Wicklow and raising Killian.

Come along with me as I explore Wicklow Town, beaches, gardens & more!

We had a bank holiday weekend here in Ireland which means no work on Monday! With the advantage of the day together, Killian took me up to Malahide. It's a village in northern Dublin. Very quaint with lots of little shops.

Last week I spent a few hours wandering around Cork. Read on to hear about the cute little neighbourhood I stumbled upon!

I'll be the first to admit that I took this little day trip over a month ago. But it was such a pretty area of Ireland that I just had to put a few pictures up here! Enjoy the views of the rolling countryside and quaint little towns.
