Divided into the Northside and Southside by the River Liffey, this busy city of nearly 1.5 million is home to almost a third of Ireland’s population. You can feel the brisk tempo here — with its vibrant arts and culture, explosion of dining choices, and classical Georgian neighbourhoods bumping up against rapidly changing areas like the Docklands. Local expert @allaboutdublin says that there’s always something to see if you know where to look.

"I’ve always loved a market. Whether it’s Camd

"I’ve always loved a market. Whether it’s Camden or Kolkata, there’s something irresistible about the sights, sounds and smells that emanate from their tangle of crowded alleyways. So when my wife, Fatou asked me to accompany her on a trip to the local weekly lumo to buy a ram, I jumped at the chance."

"TBH… At first, I pitched this story to Resonate

"TBH… At first, I pitched this story to Resonate.Travel as my own experience becoming a steerswoman on Rapa Nui, under Uri’s guidance. They didn’t accept that pitch.

But, when I recast it to be a focus on just Uri’s story and explained my community ties? They took the story. I love this about Resonate, and their evident devotion to their principles. " - @jolienecarolina

The Airline Passengers with Disabilities Bill of Rights states, 'Airlines must also provide for the checking and timely return of assistive devices at the gate for use in the terminal. Should an airline lose, damage, or destroy the wheelchair or other assistive device, the airline must provide compensation in an amount up to the original purchase price of the wheelchair or device.'"

What inspired Uri to create Team Varua? For him, the “considerable and principle role of this team is to incentivise people to enjoy hoe vaka [and] give people the chance to practise this incredible sport.” He also sees how “sports bring people together and give them a chance to socialise,” that they might not have otherwise.
