Where is Matt?

In the current climate it’s easy to forget why we travel. However, if you have about 4 1/2 minutes to spare, I think I can remind you why we will always want to experience the joy of travel.

Matt - he tongue in cheek describes himself as “a 31-year-old deadbeat from Connecticut” has danced his way around the world for the last number of years. This is no riverdance. His dancing technique can be best described as watching an octopus falling out of a telephone box.

However, combined with hauntingly beautiful lyrics there is something hypnotic about it. He visits a number of myguideTravel favourites such as

• The Giants Causeway
• London
• Dublin
• Warsaw

Ballyliffin awaits Golf legends

It may be a very small village in northern Donegal, but Ballyliffin Golf Club will certainly put this village on the world Golfing map this coming weekend when it hosts the Irish Seniors Open from Thursday to Sunday. According to the European Tour, this year’s event will be contested by the strongest field in the event’s 12 year history.

Among the competitors are last year’s winner Constantino Rocca and 2008 Wales Seniors Open runner up Ian Woosnam along with Sandy Lyle and Sam Torrance from Scotland, Seji Ebihara of Japan, Carl Mason of England and  Des Smyth, Eamonn D’Arcy, Denis O’Sullivan and Joe McDermott of Ireland.

Woosnam and Lyle are Seniors Rookies, both reaching the 50 mark this year and have shown considerable form to date.
