Reflection on my stay in Ireland

 I think that during my stay in Ireland I was able to learn different things about a new culture. For example I learnrt about other types of food and ways to eat. Also I sow other way to taught in the school. In Ireland, in the school that I stayed the students don't use books, they only use tablets for everything while in Spain in my school and many others we have to use books in each subjet. So I think that on this point the school has given me a new way of looking at education. Also the classes were very practical and this is another big diference between spanish and irish schools. Althoug the school thaught me new things I think that me and my partners gave to school new information about our culture during our stay in Ireland. I think that Irish students of  Scoil Pól were able to learnt about spanish culture while they spoke with us about live in Spain and how is the school here and something like that. In conclusion I think that the school Scoil Pól give me the vision that t

surf day

Imagen
 Today we've gone to do surf. It has been my first time doig surf so I was ver excited. As the water was very cold we've wore a neoprene. The monitors have been explaining how we had to use the surf table. Then we've gone to the beach to practice. At  first it has been a little bit diffcult but then I've got practice and it has been very funny. When we've finished the surf activitie we've gone to visit the cliff of Moher. It's an incredible place to visit, the sigths are really incredible. When we've arrived to the top part it was very windy and it was difficult to walk. I think that this place it's a very good option to visit if you come to Ireland.

the first excursion '

Imagen
 Today we have got our first excursion. We have gone to Limerick to visit the city. We have been visit The Milk Market where they are sold differnt products like fruits, veggies, meats, dairy items...  Then we have visited  the city, my favourite part has been when we have seen the King Jhon's Castle and the Saint Mary's Cathedral they are very beautiful places. At lunch time we went to the shopping centre, it' s very big for me and it has got a lot of shops that we have in Spain. In the afternoon we have returned and we have gone to see a hurling game. Hurling is a Galeic sport that is played with a hurley (it's like a hockey stick but more little.) And then to finish the boys have gone to the football court to play soccer(like football in spain.)

nigth in kilmallock

 Today I've gone to kilmallock to see another Irish night . It was in a small and beautiful  theatre. For a start one man that It was dressed Up with one layer, one hat and one walking stick told one story. The story was very funny and interesting. Then when the man finished the story a group of musicians was playing different tradicional Irish instruments. While the musicians was playing the instruments a group of children was dancing a typical Irish dance. I enjoyed a lot the night.  https://youtu.be/PP0ijme4_vA?si=D_2wClQ6XXY2lXZW https://youtu.be/Z9bD0Yn9GPA?si=caw4UvBcA_jaiRDQ

the last day

Imagen
 Today It has been my last day in Ireland. In the morning I've gone to school. In wood technology class I've finished the project that I've been doing during this 3 weeks. I've put the last pieces and I've been able to customize It. I decided to write the names of the members of my family. I've done that with a special pencil, the pencil has a metal tip and It got hot to can write on the wood. In the afternoon I've gone to the grandparent's house to have dinner and say goodbye. At night I've said goodbye to the rest of the family, his sisters and parents. I'm sure that I will miss Ireland and the family because they treated me very well and I've been very confortable with them. I thinck that It was an incredible experiencie to learn English and know about other culture. I recommend that if you have the oportunity and if I have the oportunity in the future I will do It again without doubts.

the mud day

Imagen
 Today it has been a very long day. We've gone to the ploughing festival. It's a festival where you can see a tractor exhibition. It was a lot of different tractors with different forms, colours, sizes.... In the festival it was a lot of food trucks where you could buy different fast food. Also you could buy things like clothes, bags,... in the shops that it was in the festival. We've gone to the fun fair too. It was a lot of attractions that we have in spain so I've enjoyed a lot.  The ground was full of mud and puddles so I've needed to wear boots, and the experiencie it was fantastic. People here enjoy a lot the mud and it's very rare for me so I was surprised.
