Go canyoning in Switzerland
Untitled 13 months ago

I’ve wanted to do it ever since.

Visit Ireland
Untitled 13 months ago

we have bought tickets and we will be going for Spring Break. Specifically, I want to spend St. Patrick’s Day in Dublin and visit the Blarney Castle and Cliffs of Moher. The tickets were only $420 total roundtrip from Chicago… if you want to go to Ireland keep an eye out on Expedia for cheap deals.
