Discover Your Irish Side on St Patricks Day!

Monday, 17 Mar, 2008 0

Tourism Ireland has chosen St Patrick’s Day to launch its new online campaign: Go Green – Discover Your Irish side designed to encourage Australians to explore their Irish side.

The sense of fun, hospitality and relaxed nature which both nations share is one of the reasons why Australia remains the most Irish of nations.

Whether it’s family heritage or inner essence, there’s always something that ties each of us to the Emerald Isle.

Australians can now find out what their connection is to Ireland through ancestral lineage or just shared personality traits.

Those wanting to ‘Go Green” and discover their Irish side can visit www.gogreenireland.com.au site where they can find out about their Irish name or else just have fun and discover what they have in common with Irish culture and what type of ‘Paddy’ they are!

At the www.gogreenireland.com.au  visitors can also check out a range of travel offers to Ireland with partners Etihad Airways and Creative Holidays providing some fantastic deals…….and with a little Irish luck, one could win a trip to Ireland for two, including return flights plus seven night’s accommodation.

With genealogy the third most searched term on the net, [wonder what the first two are?] www.gogreenireland.com.au is a great starting point for those who want to begin researching their family history with tips on how to begin the investigation!

On St. Patrick’s Day, its time to focus on the great connection between Ireland and Australia.

Separated by such a long distance, the traffic between Ireland and Australia has been constant for over 200 years and it seems that it is not going to slow down anytime soon!
