Description

Irena & Martin Davy

Our journey brought us to Hull from Boston after years of living across the United States and abroad. Irena is a native of Georgia (the country). Martin is from the UK. We each have spent more than 30 years building a life in the U.S. When we discovered Hull, its character, coastline, and close-knit community felt unmistakably special. We put down roots. With backgrounds in technology and a love for community-rooted storytelling, we created HullNext to give back to the town that welcomed us. We spotlight the unique people and treasures that make Hull shine.
