Conc an Línsigh

I know. I know. It’s been two weeks since my last post but, it’s been crazy here. All of the kids that I mind got very sick for a whole week and then I was sick. But no worries everyone’s healthy and happy. So back to my regular posting (hopefully). 🙂

Where did I leave off? Oh right! My insane few weeks of nonstop traveling. Where did I end up after that? In Summerhill (Conc an Línsigh in Irish), Ireland. Summerhill is the smallest village that I have ever lived in. Probably always will be. I’m very much a city girl. Summerhill has two pubs Dicey’s and Shaw’s, two markets, a Chinese restaurant, pizza place, pharmacy, and a petrol station. That’s it.

Even though it’s small I love it. Everyone knows everyone and they’re all so nice! Dicey’s is a little weird sometimes but those are stories for a different day. The area around me are all farms. My daily views around the area are cows, sheep, tractors, and horses. Pretty everyone in this area are farmers though.

Even though I’ve been here a few months I’m still getting adjusted to life here. Mostly I just miss crappy Taco Bell, Chipotle and my car. Mexican food really isn’t a thing here. My boyfriend sent me taco seasoning recently because I couldn’t find anything good. But the fish and chips I’m going to miss so much when I come home. I can’t drive here either. I’m always on a bus, train or walking. It’s going to be so weird when I come home and am able to drive.

I think that’s enough of me rambling for today. I promise and swear to post more regularly!

Sláinte!
