Checking your financial situation can be a relatively grim thing to start the day with, decided me and my roommate when we were calculating how much money we have left for the rest of the month. Also, what's left on the credit card is not going to offer us any brighter future. The only way to survive is to cut down expenses. Especially day trip, adventure and fun budgets must be adjusted to make the ends meet. But how dull is that, it's weekend and you're burning to explore Ireland. Luckily we have our dearest friend Google who was clever enough to tell us that just around the corner there's Elizabeth Fort, a medieval fortification that welcomes guests for free. What are we waiting for, let's go!

Elizabeth Fort was built in the beginning of 17th century, was torn apart and built again depending on the politics of the time (for more info, see Wikipedia, I'm not that much into politics). Until 2013 the building served as Garda (police forces) offices but then retired and nowadays Elizabeth Fort serves as tourist attraction.

Another destination where a poor working class devil can spend free time is UCC. The buildings are a pleasure to look at and they make me think that had the buildings of my previous school been that fancy, my study motivation might have been better as well.

If I ever go back to uni, I'll try applying for UCC first. Too bad when the tuition fee becomes payable, the place will stop being a free activity.
