How come we can have a feeling of being attached to places we never before saw and keep the attachment and feeling for the rest of our life? For me it was my visit to Ireland and to a lesser degree my visits to Scotland.

Can't say, because I'm not even attached to places I have been. A loved one can be like, "look at this foliage in this location we're currently in, in real time" (verbatim). And I'm like, "Yawn, defibrillate my ass if you spot a rat carrying a food item bigger than itself, though."

I don't know, my attachments have always been to people over places, I would rather live in a sewer with people I am comfortable around, I mean not that they would hang around, who TF wants to live in a sewer? Anyway my point stands 🤡

Probably the same way we can meet a person and feel like we've known them out entire lives. The person/place just resonates with our soul..which makes sense when you consider that everything is connected. It's all one interweaving tapestry. And maybe past lives (and/or future lives?) factor into that too sometimes, e.g. maybe you've spent past lives in those countries..
