I first felt in love with Ireland after seeing the movie P.S. I love you. The natural beauty of Ireland takes my breath away, it is definitely a country I would like to visit in the future.
It is interesting to know that millions of people have Irish ancestry; many of them live outside Ireland in countries like, Mexico, the United States, Canada, Australia, England, Africa, Europe and all over the world. For example I was surprised to know that Ben Affleck, Mel Gibson, Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher of Oasis have Irish blood. I was even more surprised to know that my husband last name is Irish and part of his family is Irish.
Long live Ireland!
