Do you think it is appropriate for children? My 6 year old wants to learn Spanish.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

⁠​⁠@@KayTEEChimpgreat question! So Babble says that it’s “not recommended for younger students who cannot yet read and write” but there is a free trial, you can always try it & see if it’s too much 🤷🏼‍♀️ We don’t have any kids but I know my 9 year old nephew could use it & learn from it. Hope that helps. 💗 Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@KayTEEChimp]

@AdventuresofMattandNat Thank yoi so much for responding. We love watching all of your videos. You two are excellent travel guides!

My dad was a cork man who left in the 60’s for London, have been visiting relatives in Cork for many years and know it well.. loved your enthusiasm

[@stuartrowena4371]

Don't know whether you noticed but Cork is one of the few city's left in the world where you can stroll through the streets at, say 10 o'clock at night and still be perfectly safe. What we found, you see, is that Irish Pubs, unlike Britain, are very much family oriented afairs. Sure, you've got you one's who have a bit to much Murphys, but you really didn't see the traditional utterly smashed pub crawls you tend to get in British cities. Ah sure, totally loved our year's there. My wife & I lived in Cork for just over a decade. A beautiful, vibrant yet so very welcoming country for sure. God bless both of you. Stu

[@celinereynard5996]

I live in Cork since 15 years and I can tell you that the city changed “a lot”, it is not what it used to be…it is not as safe as it was…it is now plagued with junkies, migrants sleeping rough and unfortunate homeless people with obvious mental issues, it is very sad and there was several problems recently, specially around Oliver Plunket Street and the bus station. Most of the people that I know are now avoiding the city in the evening

[@stuartrowena4371]

@@celinereynard5996 oh wow, that is very sad. I remember when the Council overhauled Oliver Plunkett Street, re-did the road and layed down all of those interlocking granite stones and the place just looked absolutely amazing. However, I saw it last year and its looking sort of 'old' now: bit jaded if you know what I mean. Shame about the junkies though. It seems that most nice cities around the world are like magnets for migrants & unpleasant sorts

[@natashawall4343]

No it’s not I live here

[@stuartrowena4371]

@@natashawall4343 To Natashawall, so did we:- lived in Cork ... for over a decade, and I disagree. The secret, as with any multicultural metropolis is to make tthe effort to fit in. If you don't ... or won't ... or can't be arsed, then you'll never fit in. You cannot top politeness, good manners & respect !

[@velvetunderpants44]

@@celinereynard5996 I'm old enough to remember Cork in the 70s It was never the utopia some people seem to think it was. What I mean by that is there's always (like any city in the world) some issues. Probably made more visible with the increase in drug use. But that just makes it seem more visible. It's not any more dangerous than it ever was, which is to say that it's a relatively safe city. I've lived in the city centre for almost 35 years and never had any issues.

Me and my husband enjoyed watching ur vlogs. We are living in Cork but originally from the Philippines. We just had our Donegal and Sligo road trip and we highly suggest you visit it when u guys are back here in Ireland. God bless❤🙏

[@barryshannahan5988]

My wife and I are coming over in October, visiting Clifden, Athenry and, finally, Donegal. Will be there two weeks total, the donegal part being five days. We’ll take any and all suggestions. We’re in our 70s, but healthy.

My grandfather and father ran a fish stall in the English market for over 40 years up to 1990. I still shop there regularly. Incredible produce to be found there😊😋 So glad you liked it. Also my parents held their wedding reception in the Metropole hotel.😁

[@phil1625]

Take your friends to county Donegal in the Northwest or Connemara for a wild trip. If you want a beach with swimmable water go to Portmarnock there's also an authentic Irish golf course on the beach, it's a close drive from Dublin airport. Throw yourselves in colder water on Helen's bay beach near Belfast. You can also book a sailing boat sea tour in Dublin and they get you to participate in hoisting the sails. If you come to Montreal where I live you can see Irish places like St Patrick's cathedral and many pubs.

Ye were right about it being a touristy pub. Next time ye should also try Sin É or the Corner House for trad music; the Hi-B for feeling like you are in someone's sitting room( no mobiles allowed), Fred Zeppelins for heavy metal, the Crane Lane for late night chats and drinks ( maybe some drunken dancing), The castle inn( for an old fashioned pub with a really good snug, The Oval for cosy vibes and a lovely fire....the list goes on 🙂

You guys production value is top notch, love the overhead drone shots, as that really puts perspective to the places you visit! Also your joy and wonderment is infectious, you are such an adorable couple! Do you have any plans to visit Scottland, Maybe take a road trip from England north to the country?

So glad you enjoyed our (second) home. My wife & I are actually Welsh but we emigrated to Cork in year 2000. Best country in the world. Actually, we returned to Wales in 2013 as our parents were in their 80s & 90s and needed some family around them, bless them. But yea, we lived & worked in Cork City for 13 years. I worked for a local TV / Audio Retailer in the town & my wife was a PA to a local Solicitor's firm. Had just the best time of our lives. Thanks for your travel vlogs guys, its so fascinating to ride along with you both. God bless, Stu.

May I ask what you do with your luggage while you’re exploring before you can check into your hotel. We’re traveling to Italy in Oct 2024 and I’m trying to figure out how to utilize our time the most and not carry luggage before we can check in.

[@AdventuresofMattandNat]

We usually leave them with the hotel… most of the time they have baggage check but I would call ahead to confirm they can hold your bags while you explore. If they don’t, I’d Google “baggage storage” and the city you’re going to & there are places for a small fee you can leave your bags. Pro tip always have locks on your luggage. Hope that helps!
