I live in Ireland and i wouldn't visit here if i was from somewhere else. It isn't a very exciting place! I live in West Cork and i really wish i lived somewhere else. The only thing keeping me here is my friends. And the social life isn't that bad! That is if you like drinking and going to the pub. What most people associate Ireland with is drinking and dancing. The drinking part is right but the dancind is wrong. You try to dance to traditional irish music and then you will see!

As one person said it is not at all diddly diddly father stuff at all. In fact i have had American relitives over and they thought a lot of things resembled where they live(New York state). Also the accents Americans think we have is very inaccurate. Yes we may and do have different accents but not like the ones that you see in the Simpsons or in Friends. You can the same food here as you can in most places in the world without much difference. And also hardly no one here eats Irish Stew and no one here drinks Irish Coffee. The most traditional food is cabbage and bacon which is very bland. Also everyone here is getting fat or starting to take drugs.

Don't believe the advertising you see for Ireland unless it says we drink a lot.
Oh, and the only holy people are old pensioners or farmers. Most people don't go to mass unless it is Christmas!
Hope you still want to visit though unless you are irish yourself!? Then you should know what i am talking about!

i go every year, as i suppose i am luckly enough to have family living in both parts of Ireland, North and South, so if me its a fairly cheap hoilday, as all i need is my spending money, and the price of a flight (not with ryanair- dont like being treated like cattle, and to be ripped off)
i love Ireland, the Irish are so Friendly people, i have brought friends to ireland with me, and they in turn have took their own families to Ireland for Hoildays

No, but I've always wanted to go to Ireland!
Dublin sounds like a good place!
I know lots of people who have been there and they loved it.

Ahhh...yes my favorite topic...I'd say even nicer then I remembered in 99' I, as you prob already know, visited this past Sept. I loved visiting friends (All over Eire).

I associate Ireland with vitality, growth, nature, Life 'The way you want to make it' is your option (opportunities for advancements). Mostly; I associate Ireland with good friends and a having a wonderful time, (The time of my life) visiting them. Trad music, and the heart of the people shining through even the dreariest days, I had brilliant weather some tell me I brought the nice weather w/me and my smiled warmed them as well.

I think the time I had in solitude traveling between counties, taking in all that Mother Nature wanted to share was a close tie to seeing my friends themselves.

I'd LOVE to go to Ireland. I want to learn more about my family's heritage (I'm 2/3 Irish) and possibly find distant relatives. I've only seen pictures and movies but from what I've seen it looks truly beautiful. I want to travel there in the near future if possible.
What do I associate Ireland with? The color green... or beer. (not to be stereotypical but even though none of us have ever even been to Ireland, in both sides of the family everyone's at least part Irish and we all like to drink, escept for me but apparently I'm a weird loner) And Irish songs, I've sung those with my family (yeah they were all quite drunk)

I would love to visit

Hi, I went about 2 years ago to a village near athlone and had a good time, the shops and markets are lovely and the landscape is beautiful, there is a lot of history depending on which part and if you are interested in it and if you go in summer unlike me the beaches are lovely.
The food is good and the people friendly so it is worth a try.

Yes I would love to visit, I have friends there, part of my ancestry comes from there, I have never had a Guinness in the U.K. as i've been told it's better in Ireland, but I would go by boat next time, last time on my 1st attempted visit I fell ill at the airport and missed my trip to see U2 at Slane castle, huge disappointment :(

I live in London. I've never been to Ireland and probably never will. I haven't got anything against it, but if I was spending my own money I'd rather go somewhere hot.

I personally associate Ireland with Guiness, lepracaun hats, rain, green hills...

been to Ireland this year and it isn't all it's cracked up to be.

You get MUCH better scenery in the Scottish Highlands.

You also don't get much "Craic" as most of the workers in the hospitality sector are now immigrants.
