Travelling to the Gaeltacht
The Gaeltacht regions are official regions of Ireland where the Irish language is the community language. The regions, unfortunately seem to be losing strength to the English language as every year go by. On the positive side, new Irish language communities are appearing in urban areas such as in Belfast.
If you’re interested in visiting the Gaeltacht, check out GaeltachtTravel.com. It’s an in-depth guide (with nice photos) on the Gaeltacht regions of Ireland.

Hello!I absolutely love anything Irish. My family’s heritage is Irish. I am wanting to get a tattoo that says “awakening hope” in Gaelic. Is there anyone over there that can translate this into Gaelic for me? I would really appreciate it.
“awakening hope”
Thank you,
Meaghan
