It’s been absolutely too long since I’ve gone camping.

So I went camping.

Yup, simple story, epz, done and done, right?

Well… honestly, kind of? It’s weird… it’s been so long since I’ve really been able to escape and go camping that I’ve gained this kind of inertia. Partially built from not having gone camping, but mainly from the fact that it’s basically illegal to go tent camping / wild camping anywhere in Ireland. It’s supposedly “accepted”, so long as you stop by the farmhouse that owns the land and ask permission… but that’s not backpacking / camping, that’s just setting up a tent in a field for an evening.



So yeah, I found an AirBnB that’s a small cabin, so I could go do a hike nearby.

It’s not really camping, and it’s a far sight from backpacking.

But you know what? It’s the best that I can do in Ireland, so it’s what I did while here in Ireland.

And yes, Andrea snuck a note into my backpack <3
