Dublin - The Beer Capital?

Dublin, Ireland - May 21, 2017
So as it turns out, Dublin - the capital of the small island nation, Ireland is my first international destination. I am here for a summer internship at CeADAR (Dublin Institute of Technology) for about 9 weeks. Suuuuuuper excited.

Dublin - The Beer Capital?. Dublin. MemExp BlogWith a much similarity in it's history as of my home country India, the Irish were ruled by the British too. Coincidentally their flag = 90 rotation of Indian flag - Chakra. This magnificient and very well maintained DublinCastle was the seat of British administration during their rule over the country.
