My first day in Ireland


 Today has been my first day in Ireland. In the morning I've gone to school with my Ireland partner, he is doing a special course because he is doing "transition year". We've stayed in the school in the morning and we've been doing interesting activities that we don't do in the spanish schools like musical and wood technology. Another interesting activity that I do today is  when we've finished the dinner. After  dinner my little host sister has taught me the farm where the house is located. She has explained me different animals that they have got in the farm and the activities that they do here. And then before going to bed I've been doing some bracelets with the family.

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.

In conclusion I think that the school Scoil Pól give me the vision t...

the last day

 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

 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.
