More Than a Fascination

Ireland graciously enters your life, leaving you soaking in the poetry of your soul and gently begins an affair with you. It doesn’t ask permission ~ just creeps in with its rhythm; a cadence that sets your spirits soaring.

 There is a secret that lives within the soil and throughout the mountains and something magical that comes from the water that surrounds it. It is more than the stories of fairies and leprechauns; although that is a very big part of it. The charm comes too, from the smell of the rain and the song in the pub and the sound of church bells 15 minutes before mass. 

In response to the question I’ve gotten so many times. 

“What is it about Ireland that you love so much, what is it that makes you want to go back to the same place over and over again?"
