Avoca House

Because I had such a wonderful stay at the Avoca House when I first arrived in Dublin, I decided to stay again upon my return to Dublin at the end of my tour of Ireland!

Why you might ask?

Well, besides the fact that the Avoca House is only one mile to Dublin city center and near the Airport, Audrey & Jack are amazing hosts that made me feel so welcomed and comfortable!


This luxurious bed and breakfast offers great accommodations.  All the rooms include private bathrooms, that have everything you need such as hairdryers and toiletries.  Avoca House caters for the guest’s every need.


 
You will be happy to know that all the rooms in Avoca House also include a TV and video recorder, as well as tea and coffee facilities.

My room had a queen size bed, but there are several choices if you are traveling with more people. You can even choose a triple room!
 
A marvelous breakfast is included with your stay of fresh fruit, cereals, yogurts, smoked salmon or the famous "Irish Breakfast" is also available.  I chose the traditional Irish Breakfast that included Sausages, rashers, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, hash browns (potato cakes), beans, white pudding.
Brown bread/ toast.
Tea/Coffee.

So if you find yourself in Dublin, I highly recommend the Avoca House for your stay!

Tell Audrey & Jack, Carla's Got the Travel Bug sent you!!

Taking On Europe Alone

Hello everyone!  Yes it's true, I have decided to travel through Europe and visit 5 countries in 2 months. In the days to come you will see a much broader, exciting, intense at times, journey of a girl who has gone from doing organized tours to breaking out on her own and organizing everything from hotels, tours, and attractions.

I am inviting you to a special edition of this blog.  This will be dedicated to many businesses I will have the pleasure of working with along the way.  I'm looking forward to sharing all of my wonderful experiences with all of you!

Just a little preview of where I'll be going, and what I will be seeing along the way!

Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany!!  What better way to start this amazing adventure! How about all the great sights of Ireland.  Guess what I will be kissing??  For those car fans out there I'm hoping you will enjoy my photos of the Mercedes Museum in Stuttgart, Germany. For those of you men who wear Cologne I will be traveling to the city that made it.  Did you know that not only does Amsterdam have a Red Light District, but so does Hamburg? I will be taking you along a boat ride through the canals of Copenhagen, Denmark......Maybe I'll see a Little Mermaid.  And maybe I might score a backstage pass to what Poland or Czech Republic has to offer.

I'm sure you will fall in love with this special journey as I make my way through Europe, as I immerse myself into the culture, food and everyday life with some help from experts I will meet along the way!

Now time to get up close and personal.
