Guide to Living in Ireland
The idea for this lens started with a guest spot, blogging on a friend's website. I soon realised that my chosen topic (Area Guide to the Counties of Ireland) was too vast for a guest spot and if I wanted to put all my information in one place and maybe expand on some of my favourite topics, I would need to find a new home for my work. That is why I chose squidoo, with its popular community platform for letting people share their interests, while automatically contributing to charity.
Each lens will be devoted to one county, starting with Dublin and will include local amenities, colleges and transport. While this lens will be helpful to people already living in Ireland it maybe more useful to people thinking of relocating to Ireland.

The story is told over seven floors. Telling the story of Guinness from its origins at St James Gate to its growth as a global brand.
