We rolled out of the car, stood up and slowly stretched towards the dark sky. The sun was still slightly below the horizon as we made our way towards the bay.

We’ve driven the Galway part of the Wild Atlantic Way many times over and for a good reason – every meter of the road brings you closer to traditional villages and beaches full of fantastic sea stacks.

When I look back through time and space, the last year seem to have flown in a blink of an eye.

After a stormy summers day when the clouds hung heavy in the sky, and fat raindrops began to fall, the sun was finally glistening, and the horizon could be seen again, offering outstanding views over a Clew Bay – far surpassing anything a tour bus-bound visitor would ever see.

Walking around Seville on a cold and gloomy day with spitting rain wasn’t what we had in mind while planning a trip to a city that is known to have a fantastic climate and gorgeous blue sky. When I close my eyes and imagine Andalusia, swirling red dresses, never-ending sunshine and blossoming orange trees lining […]
