We've always had our culture and strong connections, our ability to meet with people and connect with people. “Now, with travel and the internet, a lot of the barriers caused by location are coming down. That’s why we are excited about IrishCentral.com, a portal for all things Irish. The one thing we all know is we are communicating more and we are saying important things. The diaspora is not about leaving or going away. It's not a one way street; it's a constant flow back and forth.”
