Back to housing again, and new CSO figures show that Irish parents are generally happier to live with their adult children than their children are to live with them, and more content to see them stay. The CSO’s first ever Pulse Survey – Life at Home 2021 – provides 'substantial insights' into some of the realities of adult children moving back in with their parents to save for a home of their own.
Zen
Today's Zen has, I confess, swept me off my feet.
I've spent the last 16 months wondering what kind of film would eventually draw me back to the cinema when it was safe to do so. Well, I found it. A new film looks at the lives of a community in the Italian region of Piedmont, and the search for the treasure that sustains them, the white truffle.
The Truffle Hunters is a film full of "bracing landscapes and chiaroscuro interiors" designed to teach people “how to see again.” It looks and sounds like a tonic for the soul. Truly Zen-like. Tickets booked. I can't wait.
