Where Saints & Heroes Retreat 🇮🇪
It’s winter, yet this island never stops growing.
Cobblestone homes, roads, and fences stand firm, softened by moss that thrives wherever water and earth meet.
Colors emerge in unexpected places—on tree trunks and bare branches, laid bare by the gentle wind and rain.
The air is crisp, fresh, carrying the scent of the sea. Hills roll in endless shades of green, dotted with clusters of family trees.
Birds fill the sky—chirping, singing, soaring—finding homes and making friends.
This is a beautiful country. A place where Frederick Douglass first felt he was “not treated as a color, but as a man.”
This is IRELAND.
