Excited to be heading to Dublin next week (Monday 9/29) for the first time. I'll be working there but should have some free time here and there to explore... it would be great to connect with like minded individuals on my down time... maybe meet up with a photographer to do a shoot or....? I'm open. Additionally, I'd love to hear from any locals on THINGS TO DO or SIGHTS TO SEE in the area!! I always find it's better to get recommendations from the inhabits as opposed to travel sites or google! Thanks in advance!!!

I'm not a local,but I LOVE Ireland--you are fortunate to be there. There are so many things to see, and just being with the Irish people is a great experience. If you get a chance to hang out with the locals,especially the older generation, do it. They are some of the warmest and most hospitable people I've ever met. I fell in love with the Irish on my first visit there, and look forward to going back- even tho I'm not from there, it feels like I'm going home :-) Depending on how much time you have, and type of transportation, I could recommend some places I've been, if you like. I just clicked on the icon for Dublin out of curiosity to see how many stage 32'ers were going to be there.....

--completely agree. The best advice is to hike, chat, imbibe a little, eat, explore. Have you the time to go west, Doolin, Connemara, Keem Bay?

Merchants Arch bar, right outside Temple Bar area, has the best live music in Dublin in my opinion. I just got back from my second trip to Ireland this year, so PM me if you want/need advice on places to go :)
Thanks everyone!!! I had a blast in Ireland... worked a ton, but I DID get a little time to explore!! Amazing country, amazing people!!
