https://ko-fi.com/magnumlady Hi my name is Val. I'm a photographer, storyteller and writer. I've been writing my blog for 13 years and I talk about everything and anything on it. The page is mainly for photos and occasionally paintings that I'm working on. The blog is more like a diary and includes day trips, mental health, food and life.

I was delighted to be featured in Leitrim Life magazine recently.

Claire Corrigan from the Leitrim Observer got in touch to chat about my career, blogging, and how I ended up doing what I do now. It was a strange one looking back over everything - especially when none of it was really planned!

I’ve written a short blog post about it here if you want to have a read:

Read all about it here:

I’m a bit of a history geek I’ve recently discovered so when I heard about 14 Henrietta Street in Dublin I had to pay a visit. This is a museum with a difference, it’s set in a Ge…

I'm delighted, and very grateful, to be featured in the latest edition of Leitrim Life magazine.

Although I'm Sligo based, Leitrim features a lot in my blog, and I work for Momentum educate + innovate based in Leitrim.
A special thanks to my wonderful boss Orla, for her trust in me, I wouldn't be the person I am today without Orla.

Thanks so much to Claire Corrigan for getting in touch with me for the feature.

I'll write something on the blog in the coming days.

Sruth in Aghaidh an Aird Waterfall.
Ireland's highest waterfall.
It blows upwards when it's windy, as you can see in this video.
There's a gorgeous walk there, check out Sligo Walks for details.
