exploring a homeland, one adventure at a time

My Home in Corcaigh

I wanted to give you all a little taste of where I live and what I get to see everyday...
A view of where I live! It's the yellow/white building straight ahead--the complex is almost on the edge of the River Lee. Since it's Ireland, I of course live between two very important things--that's a brewery on the right of the picture and a church to the left!


Elizabeth Fort is right across the street from the entrance to the complex.


St. Finn Barr's Cathedral. Lucky me--this is the view from my living room!


All street signs in Ireland are printed in both English and Irish and posted on the side of whichever building in on the corner. But they're never in the same place, which always makes it an adventure to try to figure out where you are!


One way to get to UCC's campus is to walk down this street. I took the shot from the park that's on the other side of the street.
