Trip of a lifetime brings together two Kilkenny women - Local - Kilkenny People: "Preparing to set out on a 10-day charity trek in Mongolia, Kilkenny native Jane Shortall has found inspiration in a book by another Kilkenny woman, Jane Blunden. Now living in France, Ms Shortall says it also harkens back to her Kilkenny childhood, as she explains here.
I WAS born in Kilkenny in 1954 and although my parents moved to Dublin for work reasons when I was young, I was lucky to come back and spend all my summer holidays there. My grandparents’ old house on the edge of the town was a lovely, comfortable place. Not enormous, but it seemed so to us children."
