Now I will split my posts to make it better to read because the last one was quite long. Therefore this post is about my short but exciting stay in Granada before I took the bus to Anne's magical place in the mountains. I took the bus from Alicante to Granada where I stayed over night. Anne wrote me that I should take the afternoon bus to Pitres on the next day. She would pick me up at the bus station and bring me to her place in Ferreirola. Therefore I had some time to discover Granada. I have...

I was very excited and happy to spend the next three weeks in a family: with Tara and her three boys (Fiagh 2, Ruari 11 & Cian 15 years), a French student (Cyprien 10 years) and her dog Cumhara in Garretstown Beach close to Kinsale. Well, I love the area here :-). I had really a great time in Tara's family and I felt immediately integrated and comfortable there and this very special community. Even I see that I need usually a couple of days to settle in at a new place. But that's ok though....

One aim of my journey is to try out different things I have never done before in my life to get more open minded and get also new inspirations and ideas. Actually the most of the ideas and inspirations I receive from the people I meet on my journey. For example if I hadn't met Tamara, then I hadn't probably never attend the African drum circle in Kinsale... I finally made it before I left Kinsale again for a while. Pot luck dinner in Kinsale for saying 'Goodbye' to the housekeepers Yin and...

After almost a month I'm thinking I slowly settle in here in Ireland Actually, I feel very comfortable in Kinsale and enjoy working in the hostel and doing different work. I feel really relaxed now. In addition I have no other chance due to my boss who always tells me "You can finish the work tomorrow... Doesn't matter... Here take a coffee... Take a break... No problem at all... Do you want to go out tonight - just let me know... Really, that doesn't need to be finished now...". Well, you see...

I took the bus from Cork to Kinsale where my first job in a hostel started. I found it on workaway which is a great page which I highly recommend if you plan to do something similar like I do. Kinsale will be my first long term stay after exactly 14 days of traveling through Ireland and meeting new people everyday. That means I have the opportunity to calm down and check out some new activities which I can try in Kinsale. Sounds great! My new favorite place - Poets Corner in Kinsale. Great tea,...
