The Ladies View lookout is part of the Ring of Kerry and can be found between Killarney and Kenmare on the N71. On a nice day its a great stop off spot to take in the view and just enjoy how damn beautiful Ireland is. I will say however getting to the ladies view lookout is somewhat of an experience with tour buses also using this narrow stretch of road. […]

Leamaneh Castle
September 18, 2013 , 2
Leamaneh Castle is hidden away in a region of county Clare in Ireland known as the Burren. I’d have never even driven past it had I not got a tip from the owner of a local bakery in Ennistymon. Located on the very scenic R476 that winds its way across the Burren its a worthwhile drive even if the castle above doesn’t interest you.
Strandhill Beach

Strandhill Beach is located approximately 11 kilometers from the town of Sligo and offers amazing views and surfing options for those brave enough enter the water. If you prefer to just take in the view then Shells Cafe directly opposite is a must in my opinion. Having sampled their scones and jam I can say even if you don’t like beaches this little cafe is worth the trip.

Costs for the shuttle bus is 1.80 euros for one way or 2.60 euros for the return trip […]

It’s located on the island Herreninsel in the Chiemsee lake (the largest lake in Bavaria), approximately 60 kilometers from Munich. Ferries operate frequently from the many towns that sit on the edge of the Chiemsee lake. On a clear day it makes for quite the relaxing ride as you float across the […]
Wandering Around Lecce
July 22, 2013 , 1
Italy is one place that’s a real treat to just stroll the streets of any city or town your find yourself in. Be it the popular cities like Rome, Florence and Venice or the smaller out of the way places like Lecce (where this photo was taken) way down south in Puglia. The character and charm of these cities are what really gets me. Take the photo above, walking a […]
