Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland is one of the four countries (along with England, Wales, and Scotland) that together form the United Kingdom.

It took me until 2023 before I went to Northern Ireland. So near, yet other countries took priority. I am glad I made it, eventually. Awesome people, rains quite a bit (not a problem) and budget accommodation is too thin on the ground.
