Heritage Week, Hurling, and a Last Dungarvan Evening

from Ireland Travel Podcast with Saoirse Byrne · host Saoirse Byrne

On her final full day in Dungarvan, Saoirse gets swept up in National Heritage Week, from a bilingual wildlife talk at the library to the buzz before a big hurling match at Fraher Field. She takes one last walk to the Moresby buoy, weighs the cost of a fine-dining send-off versus a pub classic, and reflects on what it means to leave a place she's only just begun to know. ☕ Enjoying the show?
