Where to begin? Zach and I had such a wonderful experience in Dublin in large part to our incredible hosts - Cynthia, Thomas, and Clara. We couldn't have asked for better. We arrived from hour overseas journey weary and hungry and were met with tea, biscuits, and delightful company. Cynthia made sure that every need was attended to and provided some excellent recommendations both on things to do in Dublin and in the rest of Europe. Zach and I are gratefully indebted to her family and wish nothing but the best for their futures.
I would advise that you not pass up an opportunity to experience the same level of hospitality. Stay with Cynthia, Thomas, and Clara while in Dublin. You will leave happy!
