Marcin Figiel hails from Poland, but is living in Callan, Co. Kilkenny. He's a father of two and married to Katie, who also comes from Poland.
Marcin commutes for work at a bank, is a fitness enthusiast and happiest when staying active. He loves Ireland for its people, weather and food and while he loves Polish people and his homeland, he feels truly at home in Kilkenny. He says once he has the people he loves around him, he's happy. His family love combining Polish and Irish traditions and they love sharing those with their Irish and Polish friends and family.

What is KCLR's A Day In The Life?
The clearest and most direct way to hear how someone lives their life is through their own words.
Each week, for ten weeks, we will represent a day in the life of a member of a particular immigrant or new Irish Community by broadcasting their audio diaries.
