New video focuses on living off the grid in Leitrim

Ilíocht O’Brien, his wife Harriet and their family live a simple but happy sustainable and independent life at their 'off-grid' home in the hills of rural Co Leitrim.

The Irish Times have produced a wonderful video where they talk to the couple about their lifestyle, how they manage without modern facilities and how they still wish they could ring for a pizza!
