Happy St Patrick’s day from my crazy Irish family, the Mcinerny’s ☘️☘️☘️🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 here’s me in Dublin visiting one of the cities sites. Yes it may look a little like A Lego house, but this is the rear exterior of Dublin Castle. 🇮🇪 It’s quite the contrast from the more classic looking frontage, but who doesn’t love a bit of colour after all? Dublin castle was originally developed as a medieval fortress by King John of England. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 After a fire, parts of the building later became updated into a Georgian palace. Make sure to visit Dublin castle during your time on the Irish capital ☘️

Time to share the fourth, and last, of my memorable travel tales. This one is about a truly special location. . . ☀️ Turkey ☀️ . . . This incredible location is the ancient city of Ephesus in Turkey. This city was set up by the Greeks in the 10th century B.C, and later became a Roman civilisation. walking around the well preserved site is like directly walking through history. . . . In this picture is the library of Celsus, which was built to store 12,000 scrolls. Incredibly this was the third largest library of the ancient world, behind Alexandria and Pergamum. . . . Archaeologists are still working hard to uncover the majesty of this incredible city. Waking through Ephesus will remain a firm travel highlight of mine, seeing ancient history coming alive all around me. . . . Are there any archeological sites that will remain a firm favourite of yours? @RoyalCaribbeanUK #ShoreExplorer

Time to share the third of my four posts recapping some incredible travel experiences I’ve had over the last few years. . . . This picture was taken whilst wandering the streets of Venice. The city is kind of like a fairytale location, you see so many pictures of it over the years, actually being there was kind of surreal. . . . One thing I quickly discovered about Venice was to leave the map at home. The way to see the city is to wander around all the tiny backstreets and truly enjoy getting lost, in both location and the moment. . . . Reflecting on this experience it became apparent the importance of practising mindfulness whilst you travel. Do you have any travel moments you’ve reflected on that has been meaningful to you? 🇮🇹⭐️ . . @RoyalCaribbeanUK #shoreexplorer

Time to share the second of my four extraordinary travel stories with you all. This is a story about visiting a location that has a lot of personal significance. . . ☘️Ireland☘️ . . Both my grandparents on my mum’s side were Irish. Sadly the both passed away when I was growing up so it’s a side of my Identity I never really got to know or explore. I am half Irish and the only time I had been to the green island was as a two year old to scatter my grandad’s ashes. This year I finally returned to Ireland. I explored the capital of Dublin, which is the city where my grandma was from. Walking around knowing that this place was really a part of me meant so much. . . Knowing that I had great grandparents here who were tailors, and thinking about the lives of my ancestors from generations back helped me understand more about who I was and where I came from. Dublin will always mean a lot to me because really it is part of me. Do you have any places that hold great personal significance to you? I would love to hear your story. . . @RoyalCaribbeanUK #shoreexplorer

Primate's Palace is considered one of the most beautiful buildings in Bratislava. With its pale pink exterior and stunning intricate detailing, it’s easy to see why. ⠀ A top the roof you’ll see a giant top hat which is the coat of arms of Cardinal Jozef Batthyányi, the first occupant of the palace. ⠀ The palace also contains a rare collection of English tapestries from the 17th century which were hidden in the walls and actually worth more than what the Slovakian government paid for the palace. They definitely lucked out there.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #visitbratislava #bratislavacard #primatespalace #slovakia #bratislava #travelphotography #travel #travelblogger #femaletravelblogger #wanderlust #solotravel #travelinspo #igtravel #TravelStoke #passionpassport #theculturetrip #WeAreTravelGirls #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #femmetravel #travelgirlsgo #ladiesgoneglobal #girlslovetravel #femaletravelblogger #girlswhotravel #glt #dametraveller #traveladdict #exploretocreate #globetrotter

I hope you all had a fabulous Valentine’s Day yesterday, whether you are a single Pringle or totally loved up. . . I spent the day working on an exciting new project I cannot wait to share with you all. More details will be coming your way shortly. . . But for now I’d love to hear how you spent your valentines day? . 💕🌹🍫

Since I took my first flight just 4 years ago I have had some crazy adventures. So over the next couple weeks, I want to share with you all 4 extraordinary travel stories of mine (4 and 4, see what I did there.) . ☀️Mexico☀️ . First up is Mexico. I took my first ever solo backpacking trip through the country. From Mexico City to the islands off of the Caribbean coast, I spent almost a month experiencing the magic of Mexico. This picture was taken on the beach in Playa Del Carmen after eating a really awesome taco, ahhh Mexico. One of my favourite days of my trip was actually when things went kind of wrong. I was in Tulum and earlier that day had been on a group bike tour to some incredible cenotes. We swam and dived in these clear fresh water sinkholes surrounded in lush greenery. I had the bike until later that afternoon so decided to cycle to the Tulum Ruins, an ancient Mayan site. . I was happily journeying through the tropical paths when the heavens opened. It started to flood down with rain and I was soaked through. I had to seek shelter under a flimsy looking palm tree. When the rain finally died down I carried on my journey, arriving just as the ruins had closed. Oops. . That was my last full day in Tulum so I never did make it to the ruins, but that bike ride in the rain was such a hilarious memory that will always stay with me. Do you have any funny travel memories when things didn’t quite go to plan? . @RoyalCaribbeanUK #shoreexplorer

Isn't Bratislava Castle just stunning? It overlooks the Slovakian capital city and the Danube river from its hilltop vantage point. Maria Theresa, the only female ruler of the Habsburg empire, had the castle completely reconstructed. It changed life from a fortress to an imperial residence where she let her favourite daughter, the only one of her 16 children who was allowed to marry for love, to live. ⠀ I had so much fun exploring the castle. Have you even been to Bratislava Castle? #visitbratislava #bratislavacard⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀# #travelphotography #Bratislava #travel #travelblogger #femaletravelblogger #femaletravel #wanderlust #solotravel #travelinspo #igtravel #TravelStoke #passionpassport #theculturetrip #WeAreTravelGirls #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #femmetravel #travelgirlsgo #ladiesgoneglobal #girlslovetravel #femaletravelblogger #girlswhotravel #glt #dametraveller #traveladdict #exploretocreate #globetrotter #postcardplaces

Life is pretty weird and things can change so quickly you could blink and miss it. We are a month into 2019 and I have a feeling that there are some interesting, defining and unfathomable moments ahead. I honestly don’t really know what’s in store but hey, I’m just along for the ride 🛵☀️🌎
