  • I love cities with hidden courtyards. I know Spanish colonial has a lot of this, but Paris (not sure the style) does too. I’m not saying it’s the direction we should move in regarding efficiency nor climate proofing, but it’s really nice to get a little semi-private outdoor space (they are often shared between several houses) and have windows that open up to it. It also creates a feeling of mystery, like you really need to get to know a city before it will open it’s doors to you.












  • Citizenship question: my grandfather’s parents were born in Ireland. My grandfather, who didn’t know he had been adopted until much later in life (by a Jewish woman), became an Irish citizen in his 50s and had dual citizenship until his death.

    As a desperate American… can I get Irish citizenship through my grandfather, a naturalized Irish citizen who was not born in Ireland?? I can (understandably) not find an answer to this on the Irish citizenship website.
