Home. In Both Senses.

When most college students travel to study abroad it is mainly about going out and seeing everything we can. Traveling as much as possible. Discovering new things to do and new cultures. What our group found that was very different from most of these experiences was not only the previously listed things, but a new home. We made friends there we will have forever and are welcome to return whenever we would like. We grew accustomed to the differences there and truly fit in by the end of the trip. So even though we were returning to the United States our actual "home" it was incredibly hard to leave because Dungarvan, Ireland is our another place we can actually call our home. There were incredible experiences and the fact that the terrible ones cannot mar those speaks for itself. I hope to return to Ireland soon!
