We don’t see everything. Instead we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join me with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts, blogs, videos, and photos. In 2025, you can join me for a Celtic Invasion of Galicia in Spain. This lesser known Celtic Nation is located in the Northwest corner of the country. It’s secluded in the mountains. So Julius Caesar never invaded this country. It survived with its own unique linguistic dialect and its own unique style of bagpipes.
