[NL] Tessa ging naar Ierland voor een week buitenlandse stage. We zijn samen met haar vertrokken om een lang weekend te genieten. Na de aankomst bij Dublin, hadden we een auto gehuurd om naar Kilkenny te reizen. De tweede dag zijn we via Glendalough en Wicklow terug naar Dublin gegaan voor een reisje in de stad. Tussen de middag van de derde dag zijn we meer in het vliegtuig gestapt en terug naar Eindhoven. De fotos worden verdeeld in 4 delen en dit is de eerste post.
