Good morning from Connemara! And if you think that midges are merely a Scottish problem... Just look at me. I'm eaten alive.
旅行者I left home after university in ‘86. Since then Galway has become more of a tourist trap and the university quadrupled in size. So traffic and parking are very problematic. “Greens and Co” and “Little Collins” are the only 100% vegan places according to Happy Cow. I haven’t been in either however. Regarding photography, The Burren in nearby County Clare was more of a draw for me than Connemara. However Kylemore Abbey, Sky Road, Killary Harbour (fjord) in Connemara are beautiful.
