    Looking back over year filled with self-improvement, somewhat of a post-pandemic travel-binge, and big changes ahead.

    It's St. Patrick’s Day and since I haven't made it to the Emerald Isle for more than a couple of years, here's a slightly younger me at the Lecale Peninsular from 28 years ago ☘️

    Finally after five years I made it to the London Film Festival this weekend. I went to see the London première for Rialto (trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NKTbmqqINs) which is set in and around Dublin Port. Feeding into my Irish heritage, I'm inclined to watch pretty much anything filmed on location in Ireland. The director, Peter Mackie Burns, came along too for a Q&A afterward which made from some interesting insights into how the characters were cast and a strong focus on cinematography.

    My first arrival in the Republic of Ireland from the UK by air, not land, and somewhat surprised I had to show my passport. Missed seeing @BorderIrish, is this your technological solution?
