Manchán Magan: Our money and passports were stolen and I had no food for days — I loved it

Manchán Magan: I remember getting to Hong Kong and hiding in the library; it was too intense
Writer, documentary-maker, and self-described néaladóir (cloud-watcher), Manchán Magan has journeyed across Africa, Asia, and South America, but found his truest home amid the woodlands of Westmeath. His new book
invites readers to rediscover ancient Irish weather wisdom through the evocative lens of language. Here, he reflects on transformative travels, sacredlandscapes, and crickets with salt and lime.
