At the end of May, Katie Hogan from The Ungraceful Guide joined Mairead on the show. The Dublin woman had been travelling the world for a solid 3 years with her partner Luke, and they were weathering the Covid storm in Thailand.
Now 3 months later, Katie and Luke are back on Irish soil, halfway through their period of self isolation and preparing to welcome their first baby in November!
Their journey home was a strange one due to the Covid restrictions in place, they travelled through empty airports, couldn't sit together on the plane, but the hardest part was not being able to hug their families when they landed back in Ireland.
They're excited to be home but they're not done travelling - they plan to get back on the road soon enough, baby in tow!
