The first time I launched myself into a barrel of seaweed was in the summer of 2022, just weeks before participating in the Rose of Tralee festival.
The experience took place with my boyfriend at a lake near Kenmare, setting a memorable backdrop for the unusual adventure.
The owner of the seaweed barrel, a former Rose of Tralee escort, offered some words of warning and wisdom as we prepared to enter.
