Catherine Toupin came to visit for the weekend from Norwich, England :)
(We also saw a Ben Folds concert, I'll update with that soon)
“One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” – Henry Miller
“When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.” – Clifton Fadiman
“You know why you like to travel? Everywhere you go, nothing belongs to you. When you’re home, you’re weighed down by your possessions.”
“There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign.” - Robert Louis Stevenson
“Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white.” – Mark Jenkins
“Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.” – Miriam Beard
Photos off the coast are from Dun Laoghaire (in County Dublin) and the pub photo is from O'Donoghue's in Dublin's City Centre
