Incredible thing : Lucky Diamond Rich

Gregory Paul McLaren is the most tattooed man in the world. He comes from New Zealand. He was born in 1971 and is better known as Lucky Diamond Rich. Likewise, he is tattooed from head to foot and has held this record since 2006. Nothing escapes; he even tattooed his ears and the inside of his mouth. 100% of his body is tattooed ! He is passionate about circus and street art since he is 12 years old.

To me, it’s totally crazy because it’s so dangerous and painful. I’m wondering how many hours he has spent seated on a chair and the price of all of this ! I think that this man is extremely courageous, but a little bit crazy. One thing is for sure, we will not forget him !

Dublinia Museum

We really enjoyed the Dublina Museum as it was very entertaining and interactive. There were many representations of everyday life in the Vikings period. We learned lots of things! We even felt like we were living with them!
