This week, it really hit that my time in Ireland is rapidly nearing its end. I will never have this experience again. I can come back to Ireland, of course — I could even apply to another internship here; but it won’t be the same. The alchemy of my current experience cannot be replicated. Over…

Communication!
Working in Ireland has given me perspective on how work cultures differ between countries. I have noticed that communication levels at my work are much lower than is typical in the U.S. This could be because my remote position is atypical and is harder to have direct and constant communication. There are less opportunities that…
Coffee Runs and Intern Fun
This week at Flynn O’Driscoll, I found myself doing many interesting and meaningful tasks. Laura and I went on a coffee run, and it made me realize that I had grown up with the idea that internships did not involve real work.

After having a fun filled weekend in Galway the week before, I decided that I wanted to take a step back and enjoy some time relaxing. This week I did some smaller hikes in the area but mainly spent time doing the activities I really enjoy to relax. Those being going on runs on the…
Speechless in Belfast
My time in Dublin is coming to a close and I am spending this week doing as much as I can. Last week I did this by spending a day in Belfast and frequenting the beach. While I am sad to leave, I have also sort of enjoyed the pressure these past few things to…

Alongside having the opportunity to visit different sectors across the company, my friend and I also had the chance to visit Barcelona, Spain this past weekend,…
