Two years

What started off as a year adventure in my life has now turned into a two year life changing journey. And I feel like it's just starting. However, I'm also starting to feel the effects of getting older, not just the aches and pains, but that time is running out and I have so many things in this life that I want to do. Mainly travel, thailand, cambodia, laos, south america, Japan, and Egypt which will all somehow involve going through Italy cause that seems to be a hub for everything. I'm trying to schedule in a few weekend trips in the near future a wishlist would be Poland, Germany and Switzerland/Austria. Of course all this involves money and time off of work which don't exactly work together. I'll manage.

In celebration of my two year anniversary I spent some quality time with a few friends from my past. Kerry and Jennine from Oregon are visiting Ireland, so I invited them over for a traditional Irish meal cooked by an American. I made Shepherd's Pie and Guinness Brownies which both turned out delicious!

Today Aishling, Guðrún, Mick and I went down to Glendalough and went horseback riding! We lucked out with the weather considering most of Ireland is experiencing major flooding right now. We had great fun which is a direct ratio to the arse pain.

I'm back home now and ready to start my 3rd year of Irish life.

Lots of love to all and I miss you dearly.
