Ireland is a land like no other! 🇮🇪 😍 🌲

"Walking through the nature around Kylemore Abbey in Ireland, I had to keep myself from stopping every meter to touch some piece of moss, and marvel at its verdant shade. The green didn't end. It enveloped everything, and with such intricacy that I could have stared at any square inch for an hour. To be surrounded by such humble vibrance was transcendent." - Hannah L.
