Great tip Vicky about the automatic transmission! I was glad I learned to drive manual when I was 18! I never thought it would come in handy… until I moved to Europe…

Ireland was my first country outside of the U.S. and the first place I rented a car overseas. It was really nice to have my own transportation to go at my own pace to see this beautiful country. Of course you have to get used to driving on the opposite side of the road than in the U.S. and stopping for the occasional sheep traffic jam, but it’s definitely worth it. I did, however have to pay much more for an automatic–like in most parts of the world, it’s not the standard like in the U.S.
