Whether it’s the staggering variety of cheese or the Irish gift for the gab, culture elevates the travel experience
I used to be put off by European sophisticates, so into their fine wine and stinky cheese and their high-falutin’ “terroir” that created it all. But now I love being a cultural bumpkin.
Picking up the mouldiest, gooiest wad, Marie-Alice takes a deep whiff, and groans ecstatically, “Oh, Rick, smell zees cheese. It smells like zee feet of angels.” The result of this lovingly labour-intensive production process: Each piano had its own personality. Bringing that Old World quality to the New World was the joy of my dad’s work.
At home, we surround ourselves with people like ourselves. It’s just the normal thing to do. We shop, worship and play where people like us do the same things. More Irish speak Gaelic than many travellers realize. Often when you step into a shop, you don’t know that the locals were speaking to each other in Gaelic. They turn to you, without missing a beat, and speak in English. When you step away, they slip right back into their language.
