Sneak Peek / Delightful Dublin Guidebook

July 17, 2014

For the better part of a year, I’ve been working with my friend Julie on a Dublin guidebook, which we have lovingly called Delightful Dublin. Today, we’ve decided it’s close enough to finished that we can show you the cover!

Delightful Dublin will be available as an e-guide you can browse through like an online magazine or tote around the city with you when you visit so you don’t miss a single recommendation. We’ve broken Dublin down into six neighborhoods, introduced you to some of my favorite creative people, and outlined the best shops and destinations around the city. We’ve made sure to explain how to navigate public transportation and how to order a proper pint, and we’ve given you ideas for awesome day trips just outside the city. And of course, it’s packed from start to finish with Julie’s beautiful images of my adopted city. 

And as an added bonus, my talented friend and illustrator Ursula Celano has created illustrated maps of each neighborhood, which we’re hoping to have printed too!

I’m so hopeful it will be a beautiful reflection of the Dublin I love, inspiring locals to explore their city and giving visitors the best shortlist of spots to try.

We’re working as hard as we can to make sure the guide is out next month, and you’ll be the first to know when it’s available.

    Just discovered your blog through Design Sponge and excited to follow along. Sadly, we’ve lived in Dublin for awhile now and think we still have a lot to learn (and discover) from all your adventures! 🙂

    I’m so excited! I have appreciated all your tips and insights as I read your blog, and will be happy to be among the first to buy your guide as a way of giving a little back! (Not to mention how much I’m sure to enjoy the guide and learn even more about your cool city!).

    All best luck with it!
