A little while ago we suggested in this post an Etsy Ireland trip to Limerick. We thought we would get more takers for this offer if we finalised some arrangements. We are setting the date for the 17th of July. Just in case you didn't see the last post here is the general idea:Rebecca from Lucky Rainbow Designs is a student village co-ordinator in the University of Limerick and she has very kindly offered free accommodation for the group to come and have a little getaway. The houses would sleep about 14 people, so we are limited in space so please leave a comment here if you are interested and I'll be in touch. Don't worry the houses have all been cleaned top to toe since the students left!!
The plan would be to meet in the early afternoon, or depending on travel times for people coming from further afar that's flexible for each person. Myself and Rebecca would show you the craft shops and local attractions. Including a couple of our favourite pubs later that evening. Then it's back to campus where you get to stay for free!! The next day if anyone wants to take a gander down town they can come have a look at the crafty market I sell at on Sunday. If you want to check out some more info about Limerick check out ILoveLimerick and The Limerick Co-Ordination website.
For bus times click here, or train times click here. Alternatively if there was someone else from the team driving maybe people could share lifts and petrol costs etc. So if anyone is thinking of driving can you mention it in your comment below and other team members in your area can get in touch.
This trip is open to Etsy Ireland members, or those thinking of joining the team, it's about like minded people coming together and having a bit of fun and getting to see a new city.
