backpack through Ireland

My cousing and I are trying to plan some kind of backpaking adventure through Ireland….but I’m finding it hard to get any info on how to go about it! Does anyone have any tips or info?

My best friend and I were looking to do some backpacking. I chose Ireland because I have always wanted to go there and it is just so beautiful. I am going to start thinking of places to go while we are there and what to do. I have never backpacked anywhere… so, I appreciate any help.

So the other night i had decided that i will not be returning to school next semester because i wanted to work full time. Then it came to me that there is absolutely no better time than right now to begin saving some money to do a little backpacking. I have never done anything like this before and am looking for any advice anyone has to give on prices, locations, etc. I have a cousin living in Galway so i will be able to use her home as my “home base”. I ideally would like to find a job working in a pub and get a flat with another person. Please feel free to email, chat, message me whenever. I am looking for any comments, suggestions, or past experiences.
