Republic of Ireland
If wind and rain don’t scare you, this country is made for you !!
Indeed, you can’t be sure what the weather will be like, because it changes all the time ! You can wear a T-shirt the morning and a raincoat the afternoon…
If you love only gastronomy, you can stay in France, but if you like things like pizzas and hamburgers, you won’t have any problem fitting in.
However, you won’t be disappointed by the landscapes ! Everything is green !! In the countryside there are a lot of fields, ( with sheep obviously !! ), little hills, lakes, woods … It’s very absolutely beautiful … If you love nature, you will enjoy !
In this country, there are not a lot of cities, but there are many little and pretty towns. If you go to the suburbs, you will see many identical houses, but, after all, it’s like in some areas of France.
Dublin, the Capital of the Republic of Ireland, is very interesting. There are many old buildings, museums, shops, parks etc. In the town center, the streets are very animated and it’s very pleasant to go for a walk.
In this city, there are a lot of museums. In the National Gallery of Ireland ( the entry is free ), you will see many paintings from the 14th to the 20th century .
The National Museum contains the most prestigious collection of art object in gold from prehistory of Europe, and a lot of things from the Middle Ages and Celtic.
Their national day is St Patrick’s day, on 17th March. It celebrates the death the Patron Saint of Ireland, who was born Scottish and was kidnapped by the future king of Ireland. St Patric died at the age of 76.
There are two official languages : The Irish and the English
Irish people of Eire have their own president, Mary MacAleese, and they are not obedient to the Queen of England.
People are very welcoming and nice in Ireland. Children love staying outside ( when it isn’t rain ! ) whereas adults love drinking beer in pubs. Irish people are often red-haired with blue eyes and many freckles. The majority of people follow the same fashions than in France even if, like in every country, there are eccentric ones who has blue hair and wear flashy clothes!
The emblem of Ireland is the shamrock of their national color is green.
