  • 33 - Can You Apply for Irish Citizenship? Trace Your Irish Heritage

    Do you qualify to apply for Irish Citizenship? Maybe. Even if you were not born in Ireland, and your parents were not born in Ireland, you might be able to apply for Irish Citizenship if one of your grandparents was an Irish citizen who was born in Ireland. It's called Irish Citzenship through birth or descent. Explore this topic in a quick Ireland travel podcast episode.

  • 32 - A Virtual Tour of Dublin's EPIC Museum - The Story of Irish Emigration

    This is a unique, virtual tour of the famous, EPIC Irish Emigration museum in Dublin, Ireland. As the world's first full interactive digital museum, this is an impressive stop on it's own. But, with 70 million people worldwide claiming Irish heritage it is also a beacon from a homeland with a rich tapestry of stories to share. EPIC is the story if Irish emigration and what happened across the world as a result of the Irish influencers worldwide who have shaped our modern societies through chartiable causes, scientific advances, sports, politics, literature and art.

    The museum opened in May 2016, starting around 350 on the list of things to do in Ireland. By October 2017, it was listed #8 on TripAdvisors list, and by Spring of 2018 it ranked #5. And, if you visit, you will see why too. While hopefully someday every person of Irish descent will have the opportunity to visit Ireland, as a placeholder we hope that you enjoy this unique opportunity to get a short audio tour from Rory Cummins of the EPIC Irish Emigration Museum in Dublin.

There are trails to walk, mountains to hike, bike trails to ride, and oceans to explore by kayak. This is Ireland. An Ireland that the locals enjoy on weekends, and the tourists may happen upon an opportunity to join. One such opportunity is taking a tour with Atlantic Sea Kayaking in West Cork.

  • 29 - Ireland Vacation with the Mitchell Family, Making the Most of Teenage Years

    Meet the Mitchell family from Chatanooga, Tennessee who has made a priority the past two years to explore the world together and seems to be having a great time doing so.

    During their kids' teenage years, the Mitchell's decided to spend the most of their time together as a family by not going on vacation to the same place twice. That decision led them to some amazing school break vacations, seeing about 10 different countries in the first two years.

    You get to meet the Mitchells at a stop between tours in Belfast, Northern Ireland where they had just finished a black cab political taxi tour with Amidlife Traveler podcast host Laura H. Everyone was on a day tour from Dublin, Ireland that that included not only Belfast and the political tour, but also stopped at the Titanic Experience and spent much of the day at Giant's Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, and drove along some stunning countryside and ocean view roads Northern Ireland.
