1.66 million people, and I will be one. One tiny dot in the oblivion which is Dublin. 1.66 million. For a small town girl, that is a lot of people. I'd say that about a million of those are Spanish! Literally if you have been to Dublin you will know what I mean! (I can't complain). Dublin (apart from the weather) is more like Madrid!
I've always wanted to experience life in "The Big City". Such diversity, art, music, things in general to do. It is certainly going to be an incredible adventure!
