Adventures in Galway

The end of this week marks the start of the second half of my two-month summer internship here in Ireland. I can really feel myself settling into a comfortable routine here. Every weekday I bike to work in the morning, bike back, go for a run/go to the gym, eat dinner while watching a show,…

Birthday Adventures

One more week in Dublin has passed. Since last weekend, a big milestone in my life has passed – I turned 21. This was the highlight of my weekend, as I spent Sunday hiking to a sheep farm where I was able to hold lambs! It was a chaotic journey to get to them, but…

Sharing Dublin with a special someone

I just had to check the calendar to make sure everyone was not lying about being halfway through this trip. I know this is what everyone does say but it really is so difficult to believe that I have been living in Dublin for more than 4 weeks!! I wish there was some way to…

Lambs and Universal Healthcare

This past week was definitely the most productive one I have had since starting my internship. On Monday, I was able to meet the entire team for the first time over zoom. It felt great to be able to talk to people during the day rather than just over email. I now feel much more…

Touchdowns, Tiny Lambs & Thinking Differently

Dublin Diaries | Week 4 Sheep, Scrums and Staying Flexible What a week it has been! Week four in Dublin has honestly been so great, packed with two experiences that could not be more different from each other but both equally memorable in their own way. On Friday evening, we got to attend the 2026…

Bray Heads to Bray Head

We are officially more than halfway through the program, and it makes me a bit sad knowing that my time in Ireland is nearing its end. I suppose I am a glass half-empty kind of girl. Then again, this means less than four weeks until I see my cat again! Boom. Right back to optimism….

Lambs, visitors, and more!

This week was filled with some of the best highs I have had since being here in Ireland. The workweek felt like forever; however, as soon as the weekend came around, I got to experience some of the most amazing aspects of Irish culture. On Thursday, my mom came to visit! She flew from the…

Friends for life

One month left in Ireland and one week left with my fellow interns at my firm. Last week I learned so much about the 12 interns that work at Flynn O’Driscoll with me, and I realized that I only have one more week working alongside them. Next week there will be a whole new cycle…

If You Don’t Laugh, You’ll Cry

I know everyone probably says this at this point in their internship, and I really don’t have a more creative way to put it, but it’s truly hard to believe that I have been in Dublin, Ireland, learning, working, and exploring their culture for an entire month now. So, for a bit of an update…
