Ireland is fighting Germany for my favorite country.
Irish people are snarky and comical: I wanted to spend my entire trip hanging out with my hysterical tour guide. I wanted her to introduce me to all her friends and let me hang out in a pub with them where they taught me how to be Irish.
Irish food is delicious and seems the most homey: Guiness stews and vegetable soups. Mmmmmm.
Ireland is really beautiful!
Everything is in a palette of greens and greys, which may sound like it would be less than appealing, but just look at these completely un-retouched photos! Gorgeous. Simply gorgeous. That grass is green. Kelly green, if I ever saw it.
And Dublin is just not Dublin without....
Guinness! (and gaelic football)
After all of my "I don't like beer"-ing, it turns out I love Guinness. Like, looooove it. I took my first big sip of Guinness (after allowing it to settle, like a good little Irish girl), I expected it to be strong and bitter, not smooth and nutty. Ah, Guinness. Deliciousness. I certainly have to drink my fill of it in Ireland and the UK for fear it will not be the same when it's imported to the States.
