289/365: Caroline Quinn, Co. Monaghan

October 20, 2026 · 23 min

Show notes

You can’t help but feel instantly happy when you visit Caroline’s world in rural Monaghan. She and her husband, Peter, moved back to Monaghan from Dublin 6 years ago when they purchased an old school. They renovated it, and are putting their own unique style all over it.


Caroline is optimism personified. She lives life in full colour and that’s reflected in what surrounds her at home. Quirky, circus-goth imagery, giant stuffed animals, a taxidermied peacock, and lots, and lots, of cats. Peter on the other hand prefers a more minimalist style and is apparently a lot more introverted. So it’s really interesting to hear how two vastly different people have made such a loving home together.
