Haven’t done anything
different in a while? Then why not learn new skills
while taking a break away from it all
Fed up with fast-food, takeaways and ready-meals?
Cultivate your culinary skills at some of the country’s
internationally renowned cookery schools set in wonderfully
scenic locations (one’s even on its own island off West
Cork) and presided over by some of the best chefs in the
business.
But if cooking up a storm doesn’t appeal, then why not
learn a language? Choose a European language course and you
can hone your skills by socializing with the tourists at the
pub! Or dispatch Peig Sayers to the Blaskets and chat away
as gaeilge in the Irish colleges of the Noughties.
Of course, you could take full advantage of the
breathtaking scenery while unearthing your creative side by
attending one of the many painting, pottery, craft and
photography schools around the country.
And for those with a passion for eco-friendly holidays,
you’ll find an abundance of nature and wildlife courses
offering the perfect remedy to urban saturation. Whatever
you want to do, Ireland can be your educational paradise, so
let’s learn.

Did you know that we’re now one of Europe’s top
destinations for whale watching, or that surfing dudes flock
to our beaches to catch sky-high waves, or that you can
clip-clop along country roads in your own horse-drawn
caravan?
That’s not to mention top-sized fish caught in stunning
locations, internationally renowned golfing, inspirational
walking trails, bike rides, pony treks through breath-taking
countryside and fast-paced watersports.
And if you don’t like getting intimate with the great
outdoors, you can occupy yourself with a diverse range of
sightseeing attractions from ancient monuments to
multi-media interpretative centres, top theatres and art
galleries, and some of the most memorable festivals around
the world!
It’s all on your doorstep, so what are you waiting for –
there’s more to life than work, so
let’s click and play!
