Val Robus
Welcome to Episode 39 of the Voices Of Boyle Podcast!
Welcome back to Voices of Boyle – the podcast that is dedicated to capturing the unique stories and experiences of the people in and around the Boyle community.
In episode 39, I have the pleasure of chatting with Val Robus, also known as Magnum Lady, a blogger and photographer based in Sligo.
Val takes us on a journey through her transformative experiences, from her early struggles and the founding of her blog, to her in-depth project, “Hands of Sligo,” aimed at preserving the stories of the local community.
In this conversation, Val shares her experiences, challenges, and uplifting moments, offering a wealth of wisdom and inspiration. Tune in as we delve into the remarkable world of Val Robus and her deep connection to Boyle and beyond.
Thanks to Brendan O’ Dowd for creating and recording the musical piece for the podcast.
BE A GUEST ON THE SHOW!
If you’ve a story about Boyle, we’d love to hear it. You don’t need to have done anything remarkable, and you don’t need to prepare a thing. We sit down, have a chat, and you talk about whatever you want to. It usually takes about an hour.
Thinking of someone else? A parent, a grandparent, a neighbour who remembers how it used to be? Tell us about them. Some of our best episodes started because a son or daughter got in touch. You can find us at [email protected].
