It takes place from the 3rd to 9th of May. My Europe Week is a way of celebrating Europe Day online. By running for a week we incorporate both the Council of Europe’s Europe Day on May 5th (marking its foundation) and the EU’s...
Image by Getty Images via Daylife Some people have noticed a lack of blogging about Eurovision lately, and there are many reasons for that, college, work, etc. Well never fear, as I am back on the Eurovision blogging trail.

So head over to ESCIreland.com and check...

Dont expect this daily or weekly mind...
