GETTING READY FOR YOUR TRIP
PACKING YOUR BAGS
We highly suggest you pack light. You will not want to have to lug around a lot of excess luggage. Keep in mind when choosing what clothes to pack. Nylon or quick drying fabrics work very well. Keep valuables to an absolute minimum. We are not responsible for any lost or stolen items. Think less is more! Some more packing tips below:

Keep valuables to an absolute minimum. We are not responsible for any lost or stolen items. Think less is more! Some more packing tips below:
- We recommend a sturdy bag, easy to pull or push or carry. Rolling clothes instead of normal folding works wonders too in saving space.
- Carry your daypack with you on the first day as your carry on. Keep your valuables in your daypack - i.e.: passport, money, ticket, journal, etc. We recommend you pack one set of clothes in it should your suitcase get lost.
SCHEDULE - AUGUST 5TH-9TH, 2019
None of these scheduled items are mandatory. If you would like to take the entire afternoon and not meet for lunch, that is completely up to you.

COMMUNICATION WHILE IN IRELAND
TIPS FOR USING YOUR CELLPHONE WHILE IN IRELAND
Roaming and data charges in Ireland can break your budget if you're not careful. These tips will keep you connected affordably.
Roaming and data charges in Ireland can break your budget if you're not careful. These tips will keep you connected affordably.
- Turn your data off when in Ireland! Or keep your phone in airplane mode. Every little ‘ping' counts against your data plan- and will result in a higher-than-expected bill when you return home.
- Contact your cellular provider and inquire about using your mobile phone in Ireland. Confirm that your device is compatible with GSM (Global System for Mobile) used in Europe, and then inquire about an International plan which includes both talk minutes and data. Some providers also have a ‘use it like you do at home' option for an additional cost per day.
- Rent a mobile wifi unit. Most car rental companies now offer the option of adding a mobile wifi unit to your rental. Their rates, however, are high. For mobile wifi in Ireland I recommend Wifi Candy. Their prices are affordable and data is unlimited for the duration of your rental. Tip: WifiCandy also offers power kit rentals so you can keep your wifi device, phones, and other small electronics charged when you're on the go!
- Use free wifi and connect with Skype, Facetime, or Google Voice. Creacon provides Wi-Fi facilities for its guests. The hotel does not accept responsibility in the event that these facilities are unavailable to the guest for whatever reason.
