"Wales reminds me quite a bit of North Carolina."
Maybe, but I'm sure the weather in North Carolina is preferable to that
in Wales, though! Having lived four years in Ireland (Galway, not
Wicklow), and visited Wales (Rhondda, Snowdonia) quite a few times, both
are equally wet
Since you mention culture (and despite a Welsh background), Irish beer
wins out handily.

Snowdonia is an area I really like too. One of my most successful
photographs was taken there. It's a tossup between Snowdonia and Wicklow
Mountains. I'd personally give the nod to Ireland for the people, but
Wales for the mountains. It's kinda wierd, though. Wales reminds me
quite a bit of North Carolina. Not just in terrain, but in culture. I
could live in the Wicklows and still work in Dublin.
After I get to Patagonia I'll let you know where everything ranks.
