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!

[@Trish-ql9kz]

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

[@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.

[@paulasworld]

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.

Oh Man, I loved this series on Ireland, and it brought back so many memories of my week stay in the southern region. Now I need to return for a road trip North of Dublin. 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?

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 🙂

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! Thanks so much for watching!
