Tuesday = Travelday!

Live has returned to normal here in London, although I'm still dreaming a bit about the incredible nature, silence and winter feeling from Finland, where I was last week.

You can check out the photos on Instagram, see my photo album on Facebook or check out my stories of the trip to Seinjäjoki on our website.

Let us know what you're up to this week!

#LoveDublin Twitter Chat

Are you travelling to Dublin soon and have travel planning questions? Or are you already a fan of Ireland and can't stop talking about it? Then join us this Thursday for a fun 1 hour session where we talk, together with @VisitDublin and several other bloggers, on our best experiences and tips for having a good craic here.

All you need to do is follow the hashtag #LoveDublin and answer the questions we ask you during the chat (Q1, Q2, etc.). Make sure to mark your answer with A1, A2, etc. + #LoveDublin, so we can answer and share your questions and stories.

Hope to see you on Twitter soon @TheTravelTester!
