Ireland has been a different experience. It has been unlike anything we've lived.
The first days were really hard, we didn't know anybody and we seemed to be alone, but we carried on and we have finally seen that it is not such a bad thing and we have really had fun and enjoyed.
We have learnt a lot from Irish culture and about Ireland. We've also learnt how to live-more or less- on our own, without our parents taking care of us for a month. Of course, we've learnt English, and what is more important, we have practiced our English, and we have used everyday English more than the English from the books, the real English that it is used in the street.
Personally, I think this is an experience everybody should have and enjoy

First days by Alex
This is different. We have to adapt to this new country, new accomodation and people. No one said that this was going to be easy, and personally, I thought it was going to be hard. But it's harder than I thought.
However, we are doing a big effort in order to have a good month. The first two-three days, we didn't know anybody, so it was tough. But after those days we met people from Zaragoza and Italy, so we started to talk to other people and we started enjoying the experience in this residence.
The weather isn't as bad as I thought, it's not raining all the time and the food is quite nice.
The lessons are fine, the three hours aren't long at all and the level is right.
We've got plenty of activities to do, so we are not bored at anytime!
I hope I continue enjoying the experience.
