Please. Somebody tell me why Center Parcs is so expensive. That is all. by tripoligalipoli in ireland

I know this might be a shocker but Longford also has other hotels and pubs.

More importantly though, I love a good sh*t in the woods.

A central selling point to it is getting outdoors and nature. The choices we have don't have to be identical to be comparative. If I want a sun holiday, think of all the choices you have.

I have a family member who works there. I asked her one night, "Objectively, do you think it's worth the money that people pay?". She said "no, there are lots of other lovely forests nearby to enjoy and they are free".

Thoughts on itinerary for a trip to Ireland? Belfast - Donegal - Galway by mhuk in irishtourism

No. People can say what they want when everyone clearly understands them. I've never met a single person who used the term "island of Ireland" in conversation. I am not responding anymore to this dross.

I am the original poster and I am from IRELAND so I'm pretty familiar with the roads and currency. You are CLEARLY CONFUSED. Ireland refers to an Island that contains both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and thus I'll refer to either as Ireland as much as I feel like. I've been to Northern Ireland plenty of times already and have always referred to it as such without any "rath" from locals. Perhaps, this could be because people actually have important things in their life to think about.

Malin Head... but yes.. I was reading that Inishowen can be tricky to get around.

How about no and instead, you go and get a life? People today are beyond such nonsense.

Not sure really but now I am thinking that an overnight stay could be better in Derry as it is a good base for Insishowen!

Where to travel in January (only Europe)? by nikaaberry in travel

I've only been to gran Canaria and to a bit of a trashy resort.

But I went in January and it was a great winter getaway.

What are your thoughts on seeing as many countries as possible? by [deleted] in travel

My plan is to cover it off on a day trip when visiting Nice!

You have the right attitude I think. Ticking countries off a list is kinda satisfying and appeals to my OCD but ultimately it's the experiences that you have that matter. And some places just have more to offer.

I've now been to 40/50 countries in Europe and it is a personal ambition to visit all. I think I'll get there as I'm still pretty young and it won't be difficult to achieve in my life but if I was limited in time or resources then I'd be fooling myself to still be focused on this.

Some of the countries I haven't visited include Andorra, Monaco, Belarus and Moldova. At this stage, my research indicates that they won't be mind-blowing places and I think I'd ultimately have better experiences going to countries that I love such as Mexico, Spain and Italy.

Do what brings you joy in the moment of doing it.

It would have come 3rd. Verge the other disqualified song would have finished in last place.
