Podcast 17: Ireland Road Trip – Lush and Luxury (And how we do laundry)

Ireland Road Trip Podcast

We had a wonderful time on our road trip adventure around Ireland. We had a chance to see many of the beautiful locations – Belfast, Giant’s Causeway, Old Bushmills Distillery, Cliffs of Moher, Curragh Races, Dublin, and the magnificent Powerscourt Hotel. Thanks to our friends from Indianapolis we had a different type of travel experience, spending time in hotels and living luxuriously in some of the more elegant places in Ireland. It was quite a treat! In this podcast episode, we also discuss how we do our laundry while traveling the world full time. It’s not always as easy as you would think.
