I'm a little excited. Actually, I'm not quite sure how I feel. This could be the beginning of something new or, then again, it may not be. I will know in a few weeks when I take my first steps. It's no secret that it has become more of a challenge to keep your audience,... Continue Reading →
Howth Cliff Walk – a perfect walk on the Northside of Dublin
