Our visit to Ireland

On the 20th of March we took a plane to Ireland to visit our exchange students as planed. As soon as we arrived in Dublin a bus was waiting for us to take us to Wilson's Hospital School where they were waiting.

 

That same day each of us went to our irish students house and met their family.
During the next five days we did a lot of activities such as visiting Mullingar, going out with the irish family etc. But nothing can compare to our visit to Dublin where we could see the modern part of Ireland. There we visited Collin's Barracks which is the
National Museum of Ireland and has items related to History and Arts.




We also did a lot of shopping, for that we went to Jervis shopping centre. There we were able to appreciate the differences not only in clothes but also in their way of life.
Another interesting place we saw was Trinity College where some of the irish students wanted to study in the near future.
During our stay we spent a day in their school doing workshops with two women who worked for different NGOs.
There is no doubt we won't forget this trip as it has been a fantastic experience, we have learnt a lot about the irish culture and also how unfair the society with women is. We are looking forward to their visit as we want to show them our culture and our lifestyle which we think is completely different from theirs.
