June 01, 2025 – Vanya Dimitrova and her son Konstantin “Koko” Petrov from Bulgaria

From Bulgaria to Granard – A Mother & Son Journey.

 In this heartwarming episode of My Journey Home, Vanda Brady sits down with Vanya Dimitrova and her son Konstantin “Koko” Petrov, who moved from Bulgaria to Granard in 2014.

Koko delights with fun facts about Bulgarian culture — from yoghurt, rose oil, and the Cyrillic alphabet to name days and the lively Kukeri festival, where scary masks and ringing bells chase away evil spirits and welcome good fortune.

Listen to their stories on My Journey Home, hosted by Vanda Brady on Shannonside
