Dear Ireland,
You don’t just live in maps or postcards—you live in us. In the names we carry, the songs we hum, the stories passed down over dinners and decades. For those of us who left—or whose families left long ago—you remain a kind of compass. A whisper that says, Come see where it began. And in these ten towns, full of worn stone and warm hearts, we catch glimpses of the people we came from—and maybe, just maybe, the people we’re still becoming.
