I followed the fairies 2,000km around Ireland
I went on a 2,000km road trip of Ireland to tick as many items off my Irish Bucket List and stay in as many unique Airbnbs as I could!

Really enjoyed the beauty of Ireland presented in this video. Clisaire should be doing tourist promotional work for Ireland. Her humour and good taste come across in her videos. 😊
Ireland looks AMAZING! You are a fantastic tour guide and ambassador and a pretty good surfer too!
You are so blessed to live in such a beautiful and fascinating country ! Thank you for sharing it !!!!!!! Have a great week ahead !!! 💚 🍀 🤍 ☘️ 🧡🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🌹

Hi Ms Clare. What an awesome collection of adventures, views, and people. Thank you for all that you do for all of us. Sláinte! ~Be Blessed

The best thing about some of the irish cottages is they're literally made of cement and hay and the insulation is unbelievable, rather a cottage than a council estate flat, deirfiur fanann tú.
The blacksmith seemed like such a nice man! Very cool experience
That blacksmith is very cool. 💜💜💜💜💜🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪💜💜💜💜
Loughcrew Cairns are an under-rated gem! Was lucky enough to be there on a day in 2015 when the site manager was taking someone around for a special tour, and they were both happy for me and hubby to tag along. Just magic!
Looks like a very good time, Clare. Thanks for sharing it!
I loved all these mini-adventures! You have a delightful bucket list. I usually end up driving about 4000km on my trips, but that's over the course of two full weeks :P
Clisare i absolutely love your channel, love to listen to you talk.🙂🙂🙏🙏 Plus you're such an interesting woman and always have awesome adventures.

What an incredible tour of your beautiful island . Loved loved it Clisare. However, I can only imagine the agony. If you’s had to explain to Alex 😂 how you locked yourself out. With no help even close by. So glad you were ok for that evening. Can’t wait for your next adventure.
I visit Ireland regularly and always drive the country. I stay in hostels, never prebook as I never know where I’m going to land for the night. One of my favs is a family in Dingle who has a daughter I’ve watched from a baby to a teen (they live on the other half of the home/hostel). Letterfrack is another stop of mine even though it has a dark history & sad cemetery in the Connemara forest. BTW Traveled as a US single women in my 50’s.
You live in such a beautiful country, thank you for sharing this amazing experience ❤
The Droichead an Cheoil is definitely so cool, and that's saying something for an itinerary that is chock full of cool places! I replayed that segment of this video several times in fact! Thank you for sharing!
These videos are really making me think about how I could follow the faeries in my own life. I love that!
I'm originally from Co Antrim but live in Canada now and I actually work for the company that put in the surf machine and water slides at Andersonstown! Very cool to see it in action
Thank you for taking me along with you on your bucket list adventures.
What a treat! I do wish we could get direct flights from Newfoundland to Ireland. As it stands, we have to fly three hours west to Toronto, only to fly back over Newfoundland to go anywhere in Europe. Waste of time and a lot of money, not to mention incredibly wasteful of jet fuel, adding to greenhouse gases. As the most Irish place outside of Ireland, and the closest point in North America to Ireland (with the exception of Greenland), would make so much sense for tourism between our two islands! 😢😢
That is so beautiful and so amazing. Definitely everyone should visit your beautiful country. You are so blessed. 💜💜🇮🇪🇮🇪💜💜🙏🙏
You did blacksmithing with Tom King?! That's so cool! Him and Anthony Murphy do an event called Myth & Metal ❤ If you ever get to, jump at the chance to do one of Anthony's tours he is amazing!
I love Ireland so much! I’ve been to the dark hedges too! Northern Ireland has lots of cool spots! I can’t wait to go back!!❤❤️❤️🍀☺️
Thanks as always Clare for all you do - fantastic work showcasing our beautiful country😀😀

Go Car sounds alot like Car To Go, which we have in SOME CITIES in the US. It started in Europe. You rent an electric Smart Car, BY THE MINUTE. It was a great experience in San Diego, however, San Diego has too many issues and they pulled out. We also have a musical highway in Albuquerque. You drive also and hang your inside wheels on the shoulder to hears the song.

Thanks, Clisare for sharing all this with us! I did blacksmithing work when I was in my twenties, so I particularly appreciated you including that segment! All the places that you visited looked incredible! I love the beauty of the old stone houses in Ireland, so it was nice to see the little community of them that are still standing. It looks like you had a blast, even if you had to climb through a window like a ninja at one point! lol
Thank you for sharing, Clare. I've always had an appreciation for lighthouses. It was very interesting of the history with D-Day and how it was an effort by many more folks than just the military which seems to get forgotten. Absolutely loved the countryside. Makes me want to come over even more. But if I do, I'll have to find a chauffeur because y'all drive on the wrong side. LOL

By all accounts, the worst part of renting a car over there is the fact that the wheels are going to fall off at some point. On every trip someone said it has happened to them at least once if not twice

@firedoc5 no, the vehicles are fine. But for some reason the lug nuts on the tires aren't tightened. I thought people were exaggerating, the woman said "no! The first car we rented had a wheel come off before we were less than 2 mi down the road! They gave us another one and then that one lost a tire too!" I will also warn you that renting an automatic car over there versus a stick shift automatically jacks up the insurance you are going to pay. It's almost as if they knew, LOL.... So if you can't drive a stick shift, get ready to pay the higher insurance or perhaps work out some tours and get from one area of the country to the other by taking the train or bus tours that will pick you up in one city and leave you in another
Looks like you had fun. Thanks for sharing it with us.
This was super cool! Visiting a GOT filming site and that blacksmith tutorial were my favorites. I mean, the surfing is cool but I'd never be able to do that.

Great trip! I personally like the more rural areas you visit. If I wanted to see a shit ton of buildings and people, I would just walk outside. Personal observations of you. You are probably in the top 2% in athleticism, 2% in one on one handling people interactions, 2% charisma (very likeable) and definitely Sigma traits to make traveling and being by yourself enjoyable. This all adds up to a high quality woman. I also wonder, since N Ireland is a different country, are there likes versus dislikes about it, maybe customs or just the folks in general. As example, I live in DFW and there are plenty of states I like and like the inhabitants and plenty of others that could fall off the map as far as I'm concerned. Anyway keep up the good fight.

After all that travelling I need a good rest! Looking forward to your more detailed video journalism after this preview of coming attractions. The Irish Tourism Board really ought to take notice of your efforts. BTW, everytime I toast an English muffin, two things occur to me: 1) Is there such a thing as an Irish muffin? and 2) Why can't the English cut their muffins with more precision? Why is one half thin and the other thick? Does that make any sense at all? Do they need glasses? Is it beyond them? I'll bet the French would find a way to do it better. Heck, we can cut bagels better than the English can cut their muffins! What's the damn problem here? Sorry. I just get worked up. Much love to Millie...
