Cork is the second largest city in Ireland, and the fact that it’s near the sea makes it a fun place to stay as Au Pair. Besides this city has survived the Vikings and the numerous wars through its history, so its richness in historical attractions is not a surprise. 
 
One of the first things you have to do is going with your friend to the English Market, a nice place that it has been working since 1788.
