An Irish Aurora

Standard

Monday, 19-January-2026


I’ve been wanting to see the Aurora Borealis for so long… Then, on the apartment group chat, I saw a note. “Come to the roof deck, there’s an Aurora out!”

Andrea and I sprinted.

Unfortunately, what greeted us wasn’t quite what I’d expected… in fact, it wasn’t anything I could see with my naked eyes at all.

“Ohh, they usually aren’t visible. Just take a picture with your phone, and it’ll show up!”

… Dangit.

I mean, it does look kinda cool in photos, I won’t lie…

Christmas in Slovenia –

Standard

Christmas 2025 saw us on an Adventure – Andrea’s friend was working at a 3-star Michelin restaurant in Slovenia, Hiša Franko, and we had the opportunity to join her for a dinner and some adventuring. We jumped at the chance, hopping a flight into Northern Italy before the drive out into Slovenia itself… with a few exciting adventures along the way.


Throughout late December, 2025

I brought my drone to Slovenia!

And Slovenia is absolutely beautiful! Especially the Soča River Valley!

So… combine the two, and you get some pretty solid views of Slovenia. At least in the opinion of this amateur photographer.

Well, we’re in Slovenia… a trip to the capital should clearly be in the books, right?

Right. Of course right – adventure awaits!


Frankly, not too much to type out here. The three of us went on a days adventure into Llubjana, adoring the drive and appreciating the amazing views we had on the way in. Then kicking around the city, visiting the Christmas markets and wandering around appreciating the architecture and enjoying the people watching. Grabbing snacks as we were hungry, and dinner when the snacks no longer covered it. Coffee as needed, of course.

Yeah. A very lovely day of adventure.
