Did you think I was done sharing pictures from my recent Ireland trip? Think again. One of the highlights was visiting the 15th-century OâBrienâs Castle on Inisheer, the smallest of the Aran Islands. We took a ferry ride from the Doolin pier and scored a private tour with a local guide named Stefan. When asked if heâd lived there his whole life, he responded, ânot yet.â
Pro tip â if you ever visit Inisheer, be sure to stop by the Inisheer Hotel for the best bangers and mash.
