These are the places that basically own my soul right now – hospitals, labs, parks and the one pharmacy that has 100% seen me in tears. Some of them are actually so good for getting your life together, some are an absolute disaster for your sleep schedule, but all of them are where a Trinity med student inevitably ends up… usually with cold coffee and a half-finished set of Anatomy flashcards.

Spukorte der Medizinstudenten — 6 items
Name	Type	Address	City	Go-to for	My take
1Trinity Biomedical Sciences Institute (TBSI)	Teaching and research building	152-160 Pearse Street, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin 2, Ireland	Dublin	Preclinical lectures, histology labs, pretending group study is happening	Honestly my second home – the lecture halls are actually so good when you get a seat near a plug, but those endless stairs between classes are an absolute disaster for my quads.
2St James's Hospital	Major teaching hospital	James's Street, Dublin 8, D08 NHY1, Ireland	Dublin	Clinical rotations, getting lost between wards, Luas-powered commutes	The vibes are big ‘you are a real doctor now… kind of’. The campus is huge – great pathology in every sense, but the layout when you’re on 3 hours’ sleep is an absolute disaster.
3Mater Misericordiae University Hospital	Teaching hospital	Eccles Street, Dublin 7, D07 R2WY, Ireland	Dublin	Medicine and surgery placements, cardio cases, praying you remember your cranial nerves	Clinic days here are actually so good for learning – consultants who’ll grill you but in a character-building way – but the trek from Rathmines in the rain is an absolute disaster.
4Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI)	Medical university and college	123 St Stephen's Green, Dublin 2, Ireland	Dublin	Anatomy envy, surgical nerd events, quietly comparing lecture theatres	Walking past RCSI between library and Luas is actually so good for the main-character med student fantasy, but also an absolute disaster for my imposter syndrome.
5St Stephen's Green	City centre park	St Stephen's Green, Dublin 2, D02 N6P5, Ireland	Dublin	Post-exam decompression walks, coffee-fuelled flashcard laps, quick sunlight between wards and library	Ten minutes doing a loop with a takeaway coffee is actually so good for resetting your brain, but trying to quiz cardio phys with seagulls eyeing your lunch is an absolute disaster.
6Trinity Centre for Health Sciences, St James's	Teaching and research centre	Trinity Centre for Health Sciences, St James's Hospital, James's Street, Dublin 8, D08 W9RT, Ireland	Dublin	Clinical lectures, tutorials, skills labs, awkwardly bumping into your consultant in the café	Timetable days based here are actually so good – everything in one spot, teaching plus hospital – but sprinting from a ward round back to a lecture in under five minutes is an absolute disaster waiting to happen.
