The West Coast of Ireland is absolutely gorgeous.
The Wild Atlantic Way goes from Donegal in the far North to Kinsale, County Cork. Unfortunately I have never made it south of Galway on this route, but would love to go again some day.

I am a TCK – Third Culture Kid. Born in Canada but grew up in Central and South Asia. My mother, my father and my wife are from three different countries. As an adult I have lived and worked on three different continents.
My life thus far has been an adventure. It can also be confusing. Sometimes I write to reflect on the past, sometimes to try to make sense of the present.
I am a teacher, husband and father. I teach Design & Technology at a high school in the UK and think that everyone would benefit from learning more practical skills, myself included.
I am passionate about faith and about people. I love learning about history. I love to travel and to meet new people and explore different cultures. And the more I explore the more I want to catch a glimpse of the other side of the mountains…

I have friends who live in Ireland so I’ve been several times but we never roadtripped the whole Wild Atlantic Way: with these views, I’ll immediately add it to our itinerary for our next visit!

The west coast of Ireland looks like a wonderful place to visit. I have been to northern Ireland, to the northern coast line… but this looks so wild and windswept… I must definitely add it to my must visit list 🙂

Isn’t that a wonderful drive? We did it a couple of years ago taking a couple of weeks to explore all the little byways – it was so beautiful!

Thanks for viewing and liking my blog, you’d love Death Valley California, the name aside. You have a great eye and technical skills and I’m greatly cheered that you can’t shoot a straight horizon either. My Sony mirror-less has every doodad and feature except a sight level. Ireland is always said to be green and lovely and your pics prove it true. Good travel posts like yours probably lower tourism: “Don’t need to take the trip now, this guy nailed it. And his pics are better than mine would have been.” Thanks for doing the hard work of travel and photography for us. Bookmarked your site.
