Never been there
I don't know if I'll have the chance (the luck) to go there one day. Although I'm nearly 60, I feel young - I AM young (it took me a lot of practice :-) ) - and young enough (anyway) to keep hope. But I'm nearly 60, am I not?
I subscribed to liveIreland to have the opportunity to share my feelings with people who, like me, never visited Ireland, and confront my dreams to reality through discussions with Irish people. Would many (or, at least, some) of you subscribers to liveIreland be my keyboardpals or/and my mentors? ;-)

I have been to Ireland, but I think even with all my classes about it and visiting it, I still create some small amount of mythology around it. So far as age, Satchel Paige wrote, "If you didn't know how old you were, how old would you be?" welcome to LI--it is a fantastic site.

So, let's say I have the curiosity of a 5er, the thoughtfulness of a 10er, the thirst and love for knowledge of a 12er, the sentimentality and enthusiasm of a 18er, the dreams of a 20er and the reflection of a 30er (and I'll stop here, not knowing if I have reached the improbable age of rigour and wisdom yet. :-) ) : you're right, nothing that prevents me from booking an Aer Lingus ticket. But, waiting for that day...
One thing I've always felt is that many people knowing not much about Ireland and Irish people feel a favorable prejudice toward them. Can anybody help me to think about it?

I feel the same way
I never been to ireland but i have read a lot about it. About their specific language, the gaelic. I have read a lot of their history and the history of the celt. I have a special interest in their tales. Beiing a student writter ( french writting) i love to read about the tale of cuchulainn and the fir bolg, the thunder man and the tuatha da Danann...
i love to read about all the mystical past of ireland. Even in a world where everything appear to be discovered and that everything is controlled, Ireland have kept his magic and is mystery...
