Sinossi

The tip of the Dingle Peninsula, at the westernmost edge of Europe, is one of Ireland's most isolated regions. For millennia, it has also been a hub for foreign visitors: its position made it a medieval centre for traders, and the wildness of its remote landscape has been the setting for spiritual pilgrimage. This seeming paradox is what makes Dingle and its western hinterland unique: the ancient, native culture has been preserved, while also being influenced by the world at large. This rich heritage is best understood by chatting with the people who live and work here. But how many visitors get that opportunity? Starting with Dingle town, Felicity Hayes-McCoy takes us on an insiders' tour of the region, interviewing locals along the way, ranging from farmers, postmasters and boatmen to museum curators, radio presenters and sean-nos singers. A resident for the last twenty years, Felicity offers practical information and advice as well as cultural insights that will give any visitor a deeper understanding of this special place.

    The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo - Book Summary - Readtrepreneur(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book, but an unofficial summary.) 
    Does spring cleaning always seem to go bad? No matter how many times you clean up the entire house does the same mess reappear every time? The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up is a step-by-step book which takes cleaning to the next level. Marie Kondo invented a revolutionary method for organizing the entire house called the KonMari method.(Note: This summary is wholly written and published by readtrepreneur. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way) 
    "Tidying is the act of confronting yourself; cleaning is the act of confronting nature" - Marie Kondo 
    Tidying orders the mind while cleaning purifies it. It is really pure illusion if we think that our mind can be clear and be at peace when our house is messy. If you've tried all the other cleaning methods taught by other "gurus", give the KonMari method one last chance... one last chance to purify your house once and for all. Organizing and tidying the house could be fun and fulfilling with the KonMari method. You don't give up on your child when they're learning to walk, so why give up on your house when it's not organized? 
    P.S. The KonMari method which will be taught even in this summary book might seriously take organizing your house to the next level. What's the worst that could happen anyway?

     ”Beloved winter holiday hits go meatless, including vegan holiday cookies spiced with cinnamon and ginger, mock chopped liver (cashew, onion and mushroom pate) and 'vegg' nog, thick and rich with almond milk and cashew butter, liberally spiked with rum. The spirit of the season remains but anything animal is excised.” —Huffington Post
