Achill 2006

While we stayed on Achill Island I was interviewed by Midwest Radio, one of the three biggest radio stations in Ireland. It was quite a surprise for me to get a phonecall from one of the hosts (whose name I unfortunately forgot), although Sean told me the night before that he’s given my number to a friend of his who’s working at the radio.

So I could have been prepared…

I was walking to another cottage while I got the call, and I somehow managed to find a place which was sheltered from the wind. When it was broadcasted the same afternoon I recorded it on tape and “digitalized” it afterwards, so that you can download it, if you like.

Just click here to listen to (or download) the interview. (1 MB, mp3)

It feels kind of strange to listen to it now, but it was a very good opportunity to promote our project and say thank you to the local people! I think now that the show has been broadcasted I’ve got about 14 minutes of fame left… =)

Well, that’s it for now, but stay tuned…
