MY EXPIRIENCE IN
IRELAND
I´ve been studying in Ireland in 2nd year for
one year.
My school was called King´s Hospital School and it was
located in Palmerstown, a small village on the outskirts of Dublin.
This period of time in a different country helped me
to live a new experience and made me think how to be independent and how to do
things that I normally wouldn´t do in my house in Spain.
I went to
many excursions to museums and parks. My favourite place in Ireland that I´ve been in is Phoenix Park;
it is a natural park where lots of animals live. There´re lots of people
running or just going for a walk. The most common animal in Phoenix Park
is the deer. You can feed them with carrots or you can just take pictures with
them. You should visit the Tower of Wellington, that it´s a tower of 62 metres of height where
de Duke of Wellington
used to live.
The most different thing that I did in Ireland
was to be in a Viking water truck. First you needed to wear a life vest to
protect yourself and then you could wear a Viking hat. This water truck was
mostly like the tourist buses in Spain;
a tour around Dublin
and a boat trip down the River Liffey.
The way that
my school in Ireland
was built was very different than the way that my Spanish School was. All the schools
in Ireland
have very big meadows and large spaces where the sports trainings are. You had
to do sports every day. Hockey and basketball in winter and tennis and cricket
in summer.
KH is a boarding school and the girls houses are in
one side of the school and the boys houses in the other one. The weekends were
organized with different activities and also extra english for the foreign
people. On the Saturday night we used to have prep (study time) and afterwards
a movie with fizzy drinks and popcorns.
I would like to go back to Ireland and visit my irish friends.
This is an unforgettable experience that I have had.
