Few countries have as turbulent a past as Ireland, whose roots are lost in the shadows of time and whose past continues to make its presence felt today. In spite of the long periods of domination, famine and war to which it has been subjected, this Celtic race has remained a world apart. A people of contradictions, at times elusive, they can suddenly come to life during the discussions that take place in the pubs and the farmers` markets, among raised voices and peals of laughter. A tough race, the Irish. They live in close contact with the environment of their island, wild and closed in on itself at the same time, amid a sea of green and a romantic luminosity, evocative of the magic world of fable, legend and ancient folk tales.
