A birthday trip during last week on a whim to my s A birthday trip during last week on a whim to my second home in @visit_skofjaloka, Slovenia to hang out with some of my great Slovene buddies and to chill out for a few days after a busy year so far. It was great to see everyone and as always I had such a warm welcome. 

Bit of drama on the way there and on the way back which you can read about in my latest blog - 🔗 in bio.

Thanks to everyone who watched and sent messages. To @_jamesgil for producing and my social media team on the ground @zinovreysen, @briittneey21, @thefocusfinders, @karenskellymchugh and @hannahb695!

I look forward to welcoming partners from 3 of our @douzelage towns and showing them Bundoran. Don’t forget we’ll be broadcasting the parade live on the @discoverbundoran Facebook page from 3:30 this Friday!
