Thoughts on Lambing

3-minute read – January 2022 Sean and I first came to Ireland in May 2017 as part of a 5-week tour of the UK and Europe. On our last night in Ireland, we stayed at an Airbnb on a family sheep farm, and our connection to sheep farming began. Later that summer, we went to … More Thoughts on Lambing

A Brief Recap

Without putting in too much time or effort I wanted to create a short recap of some of the highlights from our three years of travel. At some point I may devote more time to making a proper documentary, but for now this is a fun flashback on an amazing three years of living life … More A Brief Recap
