Hi! I'm Kathleen and I'm in Ireland researching the influence of early life experiences on mental health and well-being. Welcome to my journey!

This week had more travel (and sunshine!) than usual. I returned from my Dingle trip, had a fairly typical week in Dublin, and escaped to the coast in Galway on the weekend.

In Dublin's Docklands, the Jeanie Johnston ship and The Famine Memorial sculpture both stand as markers of an event that shifted the course of Ireland's history.

St. Patrick's Day is a holiday originating in Ireland that has become much-loved internationally, particularly in communities in the United States.
These photos include sites with historical or cultural significance and scenes of natural beauty that I have visited throughout my time in Ireland.
