I have written a poem that I am extremely proud of that I want to share here but I want to publish it because it feels so important to me. It means something to me. It makes me feel proud to be a poet, and oddly enough proud to be an Irish Traveller (Mincéir). I know all of this may seem strange, but I believe sharing all of this would help you all understand something about me. Maybe that sounds off, I mean it in a good way I swear. But yeah those are my thoughts. GRMA

Have come across a paid live illustrator role for someone in the roma/gypsy/traveller/showmen community. Not sure if the person has to be uk or ireland, but if you think that's you or you know someone who might fit the bill, get in touch and i can pass on details.

This is wonderful. Though the byroad ahead of us is far, we have made quite the distance for ourselves. I can only watch on in another country, but I am proud of my people.

Tipperary’s Traveller women share quilt that tells collective story of their lives

The hills would keep me pushing, the flowers would keep me looking; The trees would shade me, the sun would warm me; Wind whispered to me, horses would speak to me; Rain would wet me, air would dry me. Oh, how I miss my life a Traveller.

@MinceirBeoir it's not the sort of place where you sit and wait for them to come to you.

You'd have to put up a sign like #minceir or #mincéirí or #minceirbeoirs or maybe even #minceirimastodon to find people who are talking about you and those like you. And even then you can go find people and talk to them. There's Irish people local and you can go abroad no problem, see Europe and further afield. Meet interesting people without ever leaving home.

I don't know much about you but hi! 😀
