Do you love Ireland?

Everyone who has been to Ireland or grew up there knows how special that country is. Irish music, dancing, …captures your heart right away. I’ve been there 5 years ago but the positive feeling I’m connecting with this country has never stopped. For those who are a bit homesick (me as well), but can’t leave Munich at the moment, there is a great alternative. The Green Farm Festival at the outskirts of Munich gives you a great idea of the Irish way of life. For 5€ a day or 10€ for the whole weekend (19-21.6.) you can watch the Tir na nOg Dance Academy or the Emerald dancers, take part in the election of the “Rose of Tralee” (but you need to have Irish roots for that) or listen to Sarah McQuaid and many others. Taking part in dancing lessons under the blue sky on dry summer grass is just great fun. The only negative point is the peripheral location. You have to take the S-Bahn to Halbergmoos, which is close to the airport, and from there a Shuttlebus leaves all 20 Minutes for the festival area. But the long trip is worth it. You can also camp there the whole weekend, what I’m planning to do for next year. I hope I will have time then. *thumps up*�
See you on the 19th. A good alternative is to sleep in the Hotel Monaco, just close the main trainstation in the center of Munich
