Don’t forget to learn the Irish word for cheers, sláinte.
Your friends will turn green with envy when you tell them you’re going to a St Patrick’s Day celebration. Whether you’re in Dublin or New York on the 17th of March, you’ll be guaranteed an amazing time. It’s a bit of a mad bash considering the festivity is in honor of Ireland’s patron saint and if you think you’ve seen a leprechaun in the parade, well, you probably won’t be hallucinating. You might think that “going green” means you’re a budding environmentalist, but not on St Patrick’s Day it doesn’t. You’ll need to be dressed from head to toe in the color and have your face painted too otherwise you’ll stand out like a sore thumb. Don’t forget to learn the Irish word for cheers, sláinte. This is a boozy party so you could well be saying it quite a lot.
