Happy Tuesday everyone! Feeling glum after a nice break at Easter?! I know I am! Then read this blog post for some travel and literary inspiration as I take a tour around Bronte & Narnia country in Northern Ireland!
Rachel’s Roadtrip # 2 – Carlingford!
I’ve been taking regular road trips to villages and towns near where I live whilst I look for further full-time work. I hate nothing more than being stuck in doors for days on end so I try to get out a bit further than my local town and explore the beautiful Irish countryside. So last week I decided to head over the border to Carlingford in the Republic of Ireland for a day of ice cream and walks.
Art Attack : Why I love Art & Museums!
One of my favorite TV shows as a kid and teenager growing was ‘Art Attack’ hosted by Neil Buchanan. For those of a certain age Art Attack was the art show to go to for inspiration in the 1990s and early 2000’s. It’s sufficient enough to say that Art Attack (and being brought to museums at an early age) is the reason I studied art at University and work for museums. This blog post talks about my love of art and museums and how they are essentially one of my ‘happy places.’
If you go down to the woods today….
If you read my last blog post you know that I’ve been going on several roadtrips across Northern and Souther Ireland in the last couple of weeks. Partly to staid off boredom whilst I look for a new job (the joys of being unemployed!) and partly to see parts of Ireland in my own time and at my own pace. So on this road trip I decided to visit a local Forest Park and explore all that nature has to offer…
Spring has Sprung !
Last week the weather was beautiful and sunny. But still cold. This gave me the idea of going on a drive through the countryside near to where I live and I’d thought I’d bring you along with me to discover some breathtaking Irish scenery. Buckle-up you’re in for some sunny, blue skies!
