Happy New Year to you all ❤

Words don't come easy today, perhaps I'm already on full holiday mood!

While making a coffee, adding the Bayleys, reading a book and cherishing good company, impossible not to think about 2023 and those who chose us, who discovered and made Dublin a bit more special with their presence.

We are taking a winter break, spinning that globe for our next destination before setting the pin back on Dublin in February.

Holly, Jolly Christmas and an adventurous New Year. Tell us what adventure awaits ahead 💚

Thank you, Grazie, Gracias, Go raibh maith agat.

One of the strongest and most sad mural in Dublin by , a message that shouldn't be reminded.

Today marks the first anniversary of Ashling Murphy's death. In 2022 more than 10 women died in violent circumstances in Ireland, more than 100 in Italy, my home Country.

1 out of 4 people thinks that violence against women is not always serious. The number of reports registered increases every year. Only 40 years ago Italy abolished the law that allowed the "honour killing" against women.

As women, we all experience violence at least once in our life. Hopefully one day education and knowledge will condemn today's world, but there is the need of a social and political change. 's call of action is available here https://www.nwci.ie/learn/article/ahead_of_ashling_murphy_anniversary_nwc_calls_for_urgent_action_on_femicide

We are not wrong by walking along, by wearing a dress, by simply going back home.

A long waited visit that eventually came true today!

While out and about we entered the Museum Building at Trinity College ♡ Spectacular.

Cheers to all our amazing 2022 visitors, to this hectic season full of life, to all the tours, the planes, the coffees, the fantastic colleagues met on the road, and to those who shared deserved drinks with us in the middle of Ireland, in the middle of Europe, in the middle of the sea.

Cheers to the people who entered our lives in 2022 and decided to stay, cheers to those who decided to leave 🥂

Wishing you the best. We are ready to welcome you in 2023, let's roll (even literally 🍰🍷) into it!

Thank you, Grazie, Gracias, Go raibh maith agat ☘❤

The Winter Solstice is the time of ending and beginning, a powerful time to celebrate light and honour the wisdom of the shadows.

This picture was taken in November 2020, a powerful dark time that also brought a lot of light for many of us.

The sun has set already, it's time to embrace the longest night. Happy Winter Solstice 2022.

One of the best suggestions we got out of a fabulous meeting with colleagues and friends was "Breath".
Three months into our break, we have gathered some thoughts and some energy, but we still have to fill the tank. 2023 looks bright...and busy!

A quick Hello from Dublin, shrouded in mist, somehow magical, somehow cold ❄️

We cannot be thankful enough for the incredible Season we are about to conclude! Many faces, many laughs, many trips, new Countries, endless queues at the airports and countless number of coffees, all wrapped up in a span of a few months.

It is now time for some TLC for ourselves, to step back and rethink, to energize and find new inspirations, ready to come back with a fresh mind and a calmer soul.

See you soon...Ciao!

23/01/2022

...and we're back! Back living, back travelling, back shouting our orders at the counter of the pub! We are back welcoming to Dublin, join us!

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
Amongst the many disruptions that the lockdowns brought to our lives is also the increase in domestic violence especially against women and children.

Promoting and leading a tour that dives into history through Women's perspective and bringing up forgotten names of female characters of our past, but also of our present, is an important step to raise awareness and shine a light on our role in the past, in the present and in the future.

The commitment to eliminate violence against Women is not and cannot be limited to today, nor to our city or Country, it is a constant and global fight. The road ahead is long and steep, but we have the duty to secure a better world for the future generations.

A gem on our drive around ! Mellifont Abbey with an extraordinary example of Romanesque architecture in Ireland. Let your imagination wander to how this place was when the Cistercian monks were here.

13/08/2021

After an incredible day on Wednesday, rest was needed and we went exploring an incredible place: Monasterboice. High Crosses, a round tower and the remains of two small churches are surrounded by a peaceful landscape. Loved every single stone!

Visiting Dublin Castle is always a great experience, more so now thanks to the incredible exhibition "Vicereines of Ireland: Portraits of Forgotten Women"...what an incredible journey in the lives of these powerful women!
