A mother of eight runs an account Ballerina Farm which has amassed 10 million followers on Instagram and 9.8 million on TikTok.

A 34-year-old has posted a video from her time in the south of the country with her husband Daniel and their children.

In an Instagram post, the Utah native wrote the family “made it to Ireland” and that “it’s so beautiful here”.

The family flew into Cork Airport over the local areas of Ballygarvan and Carrigaline while their journey took approximately 36 hours and included several flights.

“This week, we headed to Ireland for a little work trip. It was a series of a lot of flights. They were very long and we were so exhausted by the time we finally got there,” she told her followers in an Instagram video.

“It took us about 36 hours to get to Ireland but when we were flying into the country, it was all worth it. The green pastures and the little farms were absolutely breathtaking.”

Upon arrival, they rented a car and were seen driving down Kinsale Road from the Cork airport.

“They drive on the opposite side of the road here, so it was a terrifying experience for the first little bit, but Daniel handled it like a charm. I definitely did not want to tackle that so glad Daniel was with me,” she said.

The family sat down for lunch at Kinsale farmer’s market, which Ms Neeleman described as “so beautiful”, before coming back to their Airbnb in Cobh.

“We got tucked into our Airbnb right as the sun was setting and the views were absolutely stunning. Then, we all kind of took a little nap, we were all so tired.

“We got up. It was like 5:30pm at this point, we dragged ourselves to the grocery store, stocked our fridge with the essentials,” she said, as the family headed to Centra in Cobh.

“I love how in Europe none of the eggs are washed and so they keep them on the shelf and not in the refrigerator.

“But after that, we headed home. We kind of got lost. Then, we finally made it back to Airbnb and they have no idea what time it is. I’m definitely ready for bed,” she added.

The Ballerina Farm founder has also shared a picture of her daughter Fran, saying she is “fitting in nicely here in Ireland”, and of her children playing around in the field.

Meanwhile, many social media users have left comments under Ms Neeleman’s video.

“Cork is the dairy & food capital of Ireland. Please come visit. Ye won’t be disappointed and so much to learn. We would love to welcome ye to our family dairy farm, farm shop & cafe,” one person said.

Another social media user wrote: “The Irish men and women are so friendly. By far the nicest people I have ever met.”

“Ireland looks beautiful. Looks like you guys had a wonderful trip. Can’t wait to see what comes of it at the farm,” a different Instagram user said.

Meanwhile, Ms Neeleman’s husband, Daniel, said they were “travelling through seven time zones” to get to Ireland.

“Only saw those green pastures below, we were pumped. This is a work trip but we will definitely have some fun while here,” he said in an Instagram video.

“Somehow even found my long lost Irish accent. Like America, Ireland feels like a melting pot of cultures and food. We brought the kids because they love to travel and we like to give them once-in-a-lifetime experiences,” he added.
