For couple of years I have been wanting to go to Ireland and this Xmas I didn't wanna stay home so I decided now is the time.
I left on 21st early in the morning, changed flights in Oslo and arrived to Dublin around noon. I hoped into a public bus number 16 and paid 3.30€ to the city center to O'Connell street. The bus ride was slow and took almost an hour. I got of where everyone else got of and started wandering towards my hostel. I stopped at Fitzsimons to eat fish and chips! :P
After getting some lunch in my belly it was time to walk to my hostel Garden Lane Backpackers to check in. The last 3-5 minutes from the center center to the hostel was quite rough neighbourhood with drugs and just scary looking people.
I stayed in a four bedroom female dorm for 8 nights paying around 163-183€ (can't remember). The first couple of nights I was the only one in the room. :) The hostel was probably of the best ones I have ever stayed in! Nice and cosy living room with a Xmas tree, really good kitchen with cereals, tea, coffee and bread whenever you wanted to!
I decided to chill at the couch for couple of hours working a bit. After that I just left to the city center to wander around and walk around. I went back to Fitzsimons bar to listen to some nice live music with couple of drinks! While being a the bar I decided that I wanted to go to The Cliffs of Moher the next day and booked it online paying 40€ (a student).
Went to bed quite early since the next morning I needed to be at the bus stop around 7 am and it was over 2 km away.
