In Dingle they enjoy standout meals (Sunday roast, chili hake, seafood chowder, fish and chips), Murphy’s Ice Cream, local pubs (Dick Mack’s, Currans, Kennedy’s candlelit snug), coastal drives and beaches, a sheep-filled hike, and a Dingle Distillery tour with multiple whiskey tastings, concluding Dingle feels like a place they could live.00:00 Podcast intro Dingle00:33 Cliffs of Moher stop02:16 Meeting listener Amy06:26 Night drive Connor Pass07:40 Heaton guesthouse stay09:12 Best breakfasts in Dingle11:27 First dinner James Long13:22 Rainy coastal hike17:08 Ferter Cove Star Wars19:18 Murphys ice cream19:43 Fish Box dinner20:19 Dingle pub crawl21:48 Kennedys Snug History22:45 Candlelit Music Vibes23:36 Dingle Shops Cat Portrait24:57 Coastal Drive Green Room27:00 Dinner at Benners27:51 Coffee and Muffin Obsession29:38 Dingle Distillery Tasting33:24 Marina Inn and Pub Crawl35:59 Could We Live Here41:56 Trip Reflections and Next Stop@WSMHtravels

In Clifden they stay at the cozy Ben View Inn, run by siblings Eileen and Des Morris, enjoy breakfasts, and share tips about booking directly and traveling off-season—though many restaurants and a Sky Road coffee cart were closed.

Send us Fan MailLaragh, Ireland: Wicklow Mountains Basecamp + Glendalough Loop Hike (Our First Stop)Brittany and Josh kick off their Ireland trip recap with their first stop in Laragh, a quiet village in County Wicklow near the Wicklow Mountains and Glendalough. After a delayed United itinerary from Appleton through Chicago that caused them to miss their connection, they rebooked on Aer Lingus to Dublin, navigated confusing terminal information, and appreciated the mostly empty flight despite terrible plane food. In Laragh, they stayed at Heather House, walked to the Wicklow Heather restaurant for their first Guinness and meals, and compared an Irish breakfast to an English breakfast, highlighting black and white pudding. Their main Laragh highlight was an unplanned, challenging Glendalough Loop hike around the upper and lower lakes that became 11.6 miles with 2,200 feet of elevation gain, featuring ridge-boardwalk sections, wildlife, and a late return in darkness. They recommend Laragh/Wicklow as a beautiful, easy first base near Dublin, but not somewhere they’d live.00:00 Podcast Return And Trip Tease01:07 Why Ireland Felt Magical02:43 Type A Vs Type B Travel03:56 Laragh Night Hike Scare05:46 Staying At Heather House07:22 United Delays And Credits09:44 Chicago Sprint And Terminal Mixup15:16 Aer Lingus Row Win Food Fail17:06 Driving Left And First Wicklow Meal19:52 Irish Breakfast And Pudding Debate21:27 Glendalough Loop Hike Decision22:41 Pushing Past Switchbacks23:01 Views And Confidence Boost24:39 Wildlife And Rocky Descent26:57 Stats Photos And The Slip29:22 Laragh As A Trip Base30:11 Post Hike Meal Highlights32:31 Connection Growth And Gear Tips35:56 Could We Live Here38:34 Travel Lessons And Next Stop@WSMHtravels

Send us Fan MailIreland Trip Plan: Dublin to Wicklow, Teelin, Clifden, Dingle & Guinness (We Leave Tomorrow!)Brittany and Josh preview their Ireland trip departing the next day, chosen by listener vote over Finland. They describe a slower, nature-focused itinerary with lots of free time for exploring and hiking, using AllTrails and new hiking boots fitted at REI. They share a flight-booking tip—stay flexible with dates and book flights before submitting PTO—highlighting a round-trip $800 total fare for two from Appleton and flying midweek. They fly into Dublin, rent a car immediately, and drive to the Wicklow Mountains for two nights at the Heather House in Laragh, prioritizing local B&Bs/inns with included full Irish breakfasts. Next is a long drive north to Teelin near Slieve League Cliffs to stay at the Rusty Mackerel, with plans for hikes, pub time, and a possible distillery tour in Northern Ireland; they expect February weather to be cloudy, rainy, and windy. They then plan a one-night stay at Lough Rynn Castle in Mohill (booked with a winter sale and dinner at its highly rated restaurant) as a mid-trip break, followed by Clifden at the Ben View Inn in the Connemara area for pubs, music, and the Sky Road, and then Dingle at Heaton’s Guesthouse, including an experience to hold baby farm animals. The trip ends back in Dublin at the Clayton Hotel near Trinity College for the Guinness Storehouse, a bar tour focused on local spots (not Temple Bar), and a food tour. They also plan to use new wireless mics to interview locals and Americans who moved to Ireland for future episodes and social videos. Throughout, they reflect on what they’re “researching” for the podcast—community vibe, connection to each other, and whether Ireland gives them the same feeling as Scotland and other favorite places—and mention that current events in the U.S. are accelerating conversations about potentially moving abroad. They close with pre-trip to-dos (packing, cleaning, cats) and tease next week’s episode about Laragh.00:00 Welcome to the Podcast + Tomorrow We Fly to Ireland00:48 Why Ireland Won the Vote (and the Trip Style This Time)02:18 Gearing Up: Hiking Boots, REI Fitting & Getting Trail-Ready03:05 Scoring Cheap Flights: Flex Dates, Google Flights & PTO Tips06:01 Landing in Dublin: Rental Car, Jet Lag & Heading to Wicklow07:18 Wicklow Mountains Basecamp: Local B&Bs, Cozy Pubs & Irish Breakfast09:39 Hike Planning + Photo Goals (and Beers on the Trail?)12:00 Road Trip North to Teelin: Slieve League Cliffs & Rusty Mackerel Stay15:42 New Content Plan: Wireless Mics, Interviewing Locals & Podcast Growth18:03 Castle Night Stop: Lough Rynn Castle Splurge + Dinner Included20:25 Clifden & Connemara: Pub Hopping, Live Music + The Sky Road23:17 Travel Awe: Leaving Pieces of Your Soul in Places24:15 Next Stop Dingle: Foodie Town Plans & Off-Season Reality25:46 Why Winter Ireland Fits the Podcast: Living Like Locals27:24 Where We’re Staying: Heaton’s Guesthouse Breakfast + Dublin Hotel Pick28:41 Dublin Experiences: Guinness Storehouse, Local Bar Crawl & Food Tour31:13 Dingle Must-Do: Petting Baby Lambs & Goats31:52 The Heart of the Trip: Nature, Hiking, and a Healing Reset33:10 What We’re Researching: Community Vibes, Connection, and Comparisons37:54 What We’re Most Excited For: Time Together, Pubs, Cliffs & Beer39:32 Bigger Picture: US Politics, Leaving Conversations, and Finding “The Feeling”44:04 Final Countdown: Pre-Trip Anxiety, Cat Chaos, and What’s Next@WSMHtravels
