My trip.
In February me and my boyfriend have been to Ireland. We've been in Dublin for 5 days and were so impressed by the sightseeings, Irish people and their culture. We rented an b&b apartment and locals told us where to go, what to visit and see etc. We visited some touristic places like Guiness Storehouse or St. Patrick's Cathedral but also while we were walking by the streets we were finding some interesting non-touristic places to visit from time to time. For example, I found a very nice design store where I certainly bought a couple of things.
Also we've been to Howth Bay. It's amazing place with fabulous view! One thing you have to do for sure, it's to taste seafood dishes there.
So, I'm really interested in Irish culture, customs after our trip and I'd like to find Irish people here just to talk or practice English.

Hi Mari,
Well done on your entry! The biggest changes I made were to change some verbs from the past perfect and past continuous to the past simple ('we were walking' -> 'we walked'; 'we have been' -> 'we went'). You can find out more about the differences here: https://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/en/quick-grammar/past-perfect
I am in Dublin right now and I agree with you, it is so beautiful! What a great city. And Howth is so lovely, I hope you and your boyfriend can visit again and see all the places you loved!
Let me know if you have any questions, and take care,
Julie
