Powerscourt Estate and Waterfall is, of course, a special place for him - it's one of the locations where Vikings films. Home to Ireland's tallest waterfall, it really is a sight out of myth and legend.

An avid surfer, Smith knows one of Ireland's best-kept secrets - that it has some of the best surfing spots in the whole world. Brittas Bay, on Ireland's east coast, is one of the most spectacular.

As a Viking, he also loves Dublin, which the Vikings ruled for nearly three centuries. In 1030, they built a cathedral where Christ Church Cathedral stands today.
