One of ours who left for work in Canada last year – John O’Riordan, has appeared in an article in the Irish Times last week, about how emigrants were finding the the weather abroad.
From tornadoes to baking heat in summers, and long freezing winters they seem get a bit of everything over there.
Read the full article on the IrishTimes.com John previously helped with some work on millstreet.ie. He’s a keen blogger and his articles can be found at johnoriordan.ie.
Great stories. They have adapted well. Not sure I could have done it but living in California does have advantages.
He forgot to mention the mosquitoes and the dreadful driving…maybe that’s just Calgary.
The mosquitoes don’t bother me much. Don’t like the taste of Millstreet men I reckon. The driving over here is atrocious though. I bought a dash cam to video some of the more unusual manoeuvres for YouTube. 🙂
