Peter & Grainne Hill from Kildare said of their experience,  “Tastes Like Home was a wonderful opportunity to finally share our lives in a more interactive way with friends and family. For so many years now we have only been able to relate our experiences of living and working thousands of miles apart in the simplest terms, feeling that few people could really understand us. From being a part of your programme we both are so happy to finally be able to show just what our lives are like. “
