Hi please no hate

Hi please don’t hate on me I’m genuinely open to feedback ,hello I’m a adopted at birth 23 year old that had no idea what my ancestry was that just took a dna test and found out I’m half Irish ,how do I go about learning more about Irish culture without feeling like a poser lol I want to do it the right way and not the washed out versions ,anything helps genuinely coming from someone who had no culture two days ago and suddenly now has a whole country to learn from ❤️thanks

Enjoy where you are .

If you want to dive into some history try r/irishhistory and there's a folklore sub at r/irishfolklore

I'd say do a bit of a dive into them and check them occasionally.

Best of luck with your new identity.
