About

I have always been passionate about travel!  This may very well stem from having the chicken pox at around age 6 and discovering the joys of a globe.  I counted countries, oceans, seas and  islands and dreamed of visiting all of them.  I love to travel, to read about travel,  to write about travel, to share photos of travels, to experience different cultures, fashions and foods.  I’ve been fortunate enough to have visited 38 of the 50 United States of America (including Hawaii several times but not yet Alaska), 40 other countries on 5 continents and taken 19 cruises on a variety of cruise lines.  I have loved it all!

I split my time between Jupiter, Florida and Moynalty, County Meath, Ireland…..Paradise on both sides of the Atlantic!  To support my passion, I have a  tour company specializing in custom-designed tours of Ireland.  We cater to groups of all sizes and interests, from corporate executives to multigenerational families, from golfers to fishermen, from geneaolgy  researchers to traditional music enthusiasts, and so on.  Emmyjay’s Emerald Isle Adventures , (www.IrishCustomTours.com), wants you to enjoy Ireland YOUR way and we will do our best to ensure that you fall in love with it, as I have!
