A Breath of Fresh Éire

A Breath of Fresh Éire is a collection of essays that celebrates the beauty of the Irish landscape and showcases both famous landmarks and lesser-known locations. The text is accompanied by stunning photographs taken by the author.


A Breath of Fresh Éire focuses on experiencing nature in a mindful way, reflecting on the heritage of a place and tuning into emotions that interaction with natural beauty evokes.

Whether you have always lived here, made Ireland your new home or are just visiting, A Breath of Fresh Éire invites you to come a step closer to the seemingly forbidding beauty of wild Ireland.

Observe, marvel, listen – and let nature fill your heart with inspiration, joy and peace.

A Breath of Fresh Éire approaches travel writing from a different perspective.
It aims to:

• take Irish landmarks beyond facts, tips or meticulous documentation of one’s journey and convey the spirit of a place instead;

• make an impressionist sketch and relay emotions and reflections experienced when visiting a place;

• inspire reflective walking and highlight the beauty of engaging with nature on a deeper, more mindful level.
