Scotland Must-Experience: My First Haggis

September 22, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment
my first haggis

KEEP CALM & EAT HAGGIS Haggis. The one thing everyone knows about Scotland. Kind of like reindeer and Finland. I’d say most people outside Scotland aren’t particularly drawn to this dish of mutton and grains (usually oatmeal). I assume it’s because of the cooking method. Traditional haggis is cooked in a sheep’s stomach. Yup. Gross. In … [Read more…]

HOW TO FIND HIGH STREET HOSTEL During my stay in Edinburgh (read my first impression here), I stayed at the High Street Hostel. The hostel is very easy to find when arriving by bus. The bus drops you off at the final stop in the city centre. You are to head up the Cockburn Street … [Read more…]

The Smell of History in Edinburgh Let’s pretend the bus ride (Adult return 7.50£) from the airport to Ediburgh centre with a lovely view of old buildings doesn’t happen. Or you keep your eyes closed. The very first touch of the city, is stepping out of the bus. And it literally hits you in the … [Read more…]

Dublin – Edinburgh with Ryanair

July 16, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment

After two days in Ireland (the 2nd day spent on a day trip, read previous posts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 ), it was time for the highlight and point of my trip: To travel over the sea to Scotland for the first time ever. I was so excited, and the flight with … [Read more…]

Kilkenny City

June 29, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment

Kilkenny surprised me, even though I had no idea what to expect from it. It was tidy, cozy and simply adorable! And though some of the pictures don’t show it, it was surprisingly colorful! So basically Kilkenny embodies Irish culture at its best. There is lots of old buildings and smaller cathedrals, but also colorful … [Read more…]

Kilkenny Castle

March 19, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment

We descended from the mountains through Hollywood (yes, the original) to Kilkenny, one and a half an hour drive to south from Dublin. I had no idea what to expect, but the city turned to be incredibly beautiful and adorable! It was so colorful, literally full of shopping opportunities and restaurants, by a beautiful river … [Read more…]

Wicklow Mountains

February 26, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment

After the monastery we headed up to Wicklow Mountains, where are stop was quite short, though the mountains were one of the main points of the tour. All and all we got 10 minutes to take pictures, from which half went on waiting the others to get their pictures and return to the bus from … [Read more…]

Glendalough

February 20, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment

Glendalough would be amazing even without the ruins of the monastery. The views are breathtaking and the walking routes are splendid. I’ll definitely come back for a proper hike! It felt like there was everything: Forest, a river, bridges, a lake, a graveyard, a few magnificent manor, mountains, colorful nature, birds… Truly a photographer’s/nature-lover’s paradise! … [Read more…]

Glendalough Cemetery

February 15, 2017 by Lilly Pierce Leave a Comment

Somehow graveyards have always fascinated me. I wouldn’t necessarily go wandering around one after dark by myself, since I have too wild of an imagination for that, but in daylight, cemeteries are quite beautiful. And peaceful, of course, since normal people don’t hang around in them. But they are great places to practice photography, and … [Read more…]

Glendalough Monastic Site

February 13, 2017 by Lilly Pierce 1 Comment

First stop on the Glendalough, Wicklow Mountains & Kilkenny Medieval City- tour was of course the ruined monastic site of Glendalough. To me it was the highlight of the day trip, though it was only the first stop. To get to the monastery, one must walk through a gate built by vikings, which just added … [Read more…]
