Internship in Ireland

“My favorite part was getting to travel relatively inexpensively. Since I was  already in Europe, traveling around Europe was a ton cheaper than flying from  the US and there wasn’t any issue with jetlag from large time differences.” 

“The best part of my study abroad experience was taking GA 2033 “Language  and Culture in an Irish-Speaking Area”. This was one of the classes offered to  international students that took place over the course of a week during Easter  Recess. I spent the week in a Gaeltacht fully immersed in the Irish language,  culture, landscape, and history. A Gaeltacht is an area of Ireland that  primarily speaks Irish and is focused on preserving the language and culture of  Ireland. Before attending this class, I have been in Ireland for 3 months and  traveled all over the country trying to soak up as much as I could before I had  to leave. However, while my time at the Gaeltacht was short, I honestly feel  like it wasn’t until that week that I truly saw Ireland and all it has to offer. I  left the Gaeltacht with a completely different outlook on my study abroad  experience as a whole. I would highly recommend this class to anyone studying  abroad in Cork.”
