Thanks for welcoming me Steemit family!!

@lovejoy and I are busy as a couple of bees in Dingle, Ireland. The drive along the coastline here is called The Wild Atlantic Way.

County Kerry is treating us well, it's waaay too gorgeous here. I already want to come back for at least a month to discover all the hiking trails, to sing and dance more with the locals, and learn a thing or two from the shepherds that work in the hilly common-land. Everyone in Ireland has been so kind and it's been easy to find places to sleep. Last night we were welcomed onto the property that's home to the Gallarus Oratory.

It'd be hard to pick a favorite campsite so far but this one was pretty special. After inquiring about nearby land to camp on the lad running the front counter at the Gallarus Oratory hurried me out the back door and suggested we stay the night on the property in exchange for some work trade. Perfect :)

We pitched our tent a short walk from this teeny 1300yr old hand built church and spent our last waking hours inside the stone dwelling in silence, feeling humbled and grateful for such an opportunity.

View from inside the tent looking out. My patched up sleeping bag, ukulele found at night market in Taiwan, stove from dear friend and mentor Jeff, thrifted hiking boots, Irish whiskey, cup is a gift from @bathysaurus in Philly, and @lovejoy's kettle

I'll leave it to @lovejoy to give you a little deeper look at all the journeys but wanted to say hello and THANKS!


Sláinte!
