About Me
Hello, I’m Caroline Mc Kenna, also known as A County Down Under. Seven years ago, I traded County Down, Ireland, for a ‘few months’ of exploration in Australia. Enchanted by the lifestyle Down Under, I soon discovered my dream job teaching in a beautiful school. However, the journey has been a mix of highs and lows, filled with challenges and moments of solitude. Making lasting connections can be tough in a place where people come and go so frequently. Scrolling through Instagram, I noticed a trend of showcasing only the best moments, leaving the difficult times untold. This prompted me to share the real story – the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Starting with a 15-minute podcast, created with no experience and no intention of continuing, became a turning point. Three years later, A County Down Under has soared to the Top 3 podcast charts in Ireland and the UK, Top 15 in Australia, and beyond. With a diverse range of guests, including celebrities, each episode is an exploration of real experiences.
Across the globe, I’ve established Sunrise Socialⓒ communities, where we gather at sunrise every week, year-round, for coffee, chat, and a brave dip for the adventurous. Monthly events worldwide add a touch of celebration to life’s journey, emphasizing the balance we all seek. The philosophy behind Sunrise Socialⓒ is simple: no matter how challenging your night has been, the sun will rise again tomorrow.
Whether you’re considering a move abroad, returning home after living abroad, or simply eager to make new friends, we’re thrilled to welcome you. Our clubs embrace everyone – men, women, babies, dogs, parents, young or old, Irish or not. A County Down Under isn’t just a name; it’s a fitting identity because we truly become your home away from home.
