Description

Ireland is a country of breathtaking landscapes; mountains, rivers, forests, and seas. And yet, for all its beauty, we barely step into it. Unlike almost every other country, Ireland has no camping culture, no BBQ areas, no right to roam, and hardly any public facilities that make the outdoors accessible. Instead, generations have been told, directly and indirectly, that we can’t be trusted outside. In this episode, we explore why Ireland became a nation of “The Great Indoors,” how this disconnection affects our mental health and culture, and what we could gain by rebuilding a true relationship with the land. From saunas on our beaches to the absence of bins in our parks, this is a story about trust, freedom, and the need to step outside before it’s too late.
