With stops in France, Zambia, the USA, Lithuania, Belarus, Finland and finally the Holy See, Donal has a few choice tales to tell.

Donal was inspired by is his grandfather, Eamonn Tuke, a volunteer in the Irish Citizen Army and a footsoldier of the Irish Rebellion of 1916 and War of Independence. And Donals other hero, John F. Kennedy, famously said, "Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country." With those words in his ear and his partner Siobhan at his side, Donal served his country under many different guises to make its presence known in international settings and to offer the legendary Irish hospitality to fellow world citizens, and along the way made many enduring friendships.
