PEOPLE OF GALWAY; THIS IS ALEX

We’re having the chats with #PeopleofGalway for the craic — messers and chancers, artists and tourists, buskers and shopkeepers, and any other unwitting victims we meet on the street.

#ThisIsGalway “I’ve always wanted to go to Galway. I met an old man at a restaurant that I was working at in California – he took one look at me and said “You’re definitely from Galway”. I told him that I wasn’t, I’m American, and he replied “But you must go, you must go”. This was in San Obispo, California – he was actually from Galway. He was one of the old men you’d probably photograph. And ever since then I’ve had that in the back of my head – to come here. Three years later and now I’m here.”
