Glencolmcille, County Donegal

Learning Irish in Glencolmcille

Oideas Gael organises Irish courses in Glencolmcille (Gleann Cholm Cille) and the village of Cashel. From the class room, you have a view of the Atlantic Ocean, and Slieve League. From day one you are immersed in Irish language, music and culture and their method ensure you’ll be talking a few words ‘as Gaeilge’ quickly. If language isn’t your thing, you could do the hill walking course, or archeology course.

Though I never did become fluent in Irish, I enjoyed my stay in the valley immensely and went back for another taste twice or more. The area is remote and barren, but beautifully so.

Toronto, Ontario

Toronto, 1976 and 1987

Twice in my life I travelled through Toronto. Once with my parents in 1976, on our way to Vancouver. It was our first big trip but we were unimpressed because we couldn’t a decent restaurant to have dinner. I think I bought a pair of cowboy boots.

In 87 I had 7 hours between flights so I took a bus to a mall and bought U2’s The Joshua Tree on LP and cassette tape (so I could listen to it on my flight back to Europe). I remember being so lost in the music, I forgot all about shopping and just sat down and listened and waited until it was time to go back to the airport.

Worth visiting? I guess I don’t really know. But it was worth remembering.
