Great Britain & Ireland

Ahh, the motherland. After living in England for two years, is it crazy that anything less than seeing 100% of the UK feels a teeny bit like I failed? However, I wouldn't change a thing about how we spent our two years there. There's just so much to see. As for Ireland, such a special place in my heart as it's the first place outside the US I ever went and sparked this love/obsession with travel you see today. 

Things in Purple are the ones I've done from the book. Click on them for links to photos and stories.
