Inishmore, Ireland

 

Headed out on a ferry for a day trip to the Aran Islands, off the coast of Galway. Spent the day riding bikes around the island, marvelling at the landscape, seeing a prehistoric fort, and checking out seals.

 

Ennis Trad Fest, Ireland

 

Leaving our home base in Galway for a few days, I took a weekend trip down to the Ennis Trad Fest. Days and nights were filled roaming the streets for sessions. Over meals, I read up on my family history and learned that some of my Irish peoples come from this area.

 

Galway, Ireland

Lisbon, Portugal

 

Couldn't leave the Iberian Peninsula after 4.5 years without visiting Portugal...took the train south from Vigo, transferred in Porto, and ended up in Lisbon for a week and a half of exploration (with side trip to Sintra). I spent the first half of every day editing my Spain audio/video music collaborations and got out in the city for the afternoon/evening.

Our travels kicked off in September 2019 with six weeks in the Iberian Peninsula. During our time living in Valencia, Spain, we had the chance to do some exploring but hadn’t yet made it to Andalucía or Galicia as a family, so that is where our Otherlands journey begins…
