How much of Ireland have you seen?

Wanderer2010 · 07-03-2015 10:11pm

I havent been to the Aran Islands, Mayo, Sligo and places like Cavan, Westmeath or Leitrim. The only part of the north I have been to is Belfast, I would love to see Donegal and Derry etc. I dont really have any reason to visit a lot of these places and I have never had a wedding invite that spreads to these areas. Im surprised that so many people have seen practically every town and county in Ireland, where do you get the time??

I've actually been all over Ireland except past Belfast further north. Been up to Donegal to the bottom of West Cork and through the Midlands. I love West Cork, Kerry, Clare, Donegal and I suppose Dublin is pretty cool. Nearly forgot Galway, lived there for long enough, beautiful city.

always find it somewhat amusing when people say galway is a beautiful city

it has a great buzz about it and has beautiful scenery within a stones throw of it out in connemarra but i really dont think the city is all that spectacular to look at

Have been in 11 counties, 8 ulster ones and Louth, Meath and Dublin.

I spend my life in South Antrim, South Derry and East Tyrone, every now and then I would pop over to donegal or go over to Northern England.
I would like to visit the Scottish Highlands and Islands soon. I am as northie as they come

That's what I was thinking. Between work and hobbies I don't have much time to explore Éire.

It's also 100% shìte. Who recommends Newry over Belfast?

"Come to Newry for the Catholics. We keep the jam buns in their place."

Have seen most of it. Only counties I haven't been to are Leitrim, Monaghan, Cavan, Offaly, Kerry and Donegal,

Antrim/Belfast is the only one I've been to north of the border.

How much of Ireland have you seen?
