"Despite being a citizen since the age of 12, I never felt particularly tied to the country, especially considering that my family's Irish heritage has largely been silent."
"After weeks of hunching over my laptop, I credibly traced my lineage as far back as the mid-19th century, unearthing names, birth, marriage, and death dates, all tied to one place: County Cork."
"I wanted to see more of the country, so much more, and form some connection to the land that had housed generations of unknown family members."
"We landed early in Dublin on Saint Patrick's Day weekend to thick sheets of rain and crowds guzzling pints of Guinness as if they were water."
