Dublin Diaries | The End An Amazing Ireland Summer And just like that, it is over. Eight weeks in Dublin felt like both the longest and shortest stretch of time I have ever experienced, and now sitting back home reflecting on everything that happened, I am still processing just how much this summer meant to…

This Feels Like (Afro)Euro Summer
This summer was quite transformative for me. I know I already expressed this sentiment before, but there is no other adjective I can think of that truly encapsulates how I feel about my time overseas. Within three months, I studied in Senegal, worked in Ireland, saw the Eiffel Tower alit, and watched shows in London’s…
My Final Farewell
I still cannot believe that more than three weeks ago I was still doing my internship in a completely foreign country. Looking back on the time I have spent in Dublin almost makes the whole experience seem like something that never actually happened. The seemingly long eight weeks before the program ended up passing by…
Post-Dublin Reflections
During my two month internship experience this summer, I have gained numerous professional experiences. I am very grateful to have been able to work at the European Institute of Women’s Health, a nonprofit organization focusing on improving international policy surrounding women’s health.

The Last Goodbye
It’s crazy to think that 2 weeks have already passed since I said my final goodbyes to all my friends in Ireland, and yet it has been. Time always seems to fly when you look back on the short term, but it just goes to show how important it is to take hold of the…
My Vision of Success
Some experiences change you, and I have a feeling I’ll be telling this story for the rest of my life. It is genuinely insane, and I’m not even sure how to feel about the whole thing. Just last week it felt like I was unpacking all of my things and meeting my roommates for the…
Farewell to Dublin
Since it was my last week in Ireland, I wanted to make the most out of the experience by doing some of the last things on my list. We were able to make one final day trip out to Cork which was a two hour train ride from Dublin. While we were there, we made…
