As the inevitable goodbye approaches way too quickly, I feel conflicted about how to feel. On one hand, I have to think about my travel plans to go home, buy another suitcase (I bought too many pairs of shoes and clothing items while here; sorry, Mom), and prepare for life back in the United States….
Tag: International Internship Program: Dublin
Dublin & Edinburgh!
Another week has flown by in Dublin! I’m so excited to enter the penultimate week of the program, though I’m sad to think it’s almost over! This past weekend, I visited Edinburgh with friends which was an absolutely wonderful experience. Edinburgh is a lovely city, and I was delighted to spend a weekend there, even…
Welcome to Scotland
I have done so many wonderful things in Ireland, from the countryside to the heart of Dublin I have had a blast everywhere I went. This past weekend I ventured out with almost my whole flat to Edinboro Scotland. I have a close relative who goes to school in Scotland and gave me some must-sees…

There Are No Office Hours For Leaders
Leadership Skills & Style I never realized how quickly this program would pass me by. I am not looking forward to saying goodbye to this fabulous island, but alas, I will have to very soon. At my placement this past week, I was moved to a later shift with the night manager. It was pretty…
Appreciate the Little Moments More
Appreciate. This word has been pertinent in my day-to-day routine over the past week, both in and out of the office. After recovering from my trip to the hospital, I had quite a few activities planned and looked forward to seeing what was in store for the days ahead. On Friday, I was invited to…
Never Stop Exploring
Happy Fourth of July from Dublin, Ireland! This is my first time being abroad on a holiday especially one that comes along with traditions. It was kind of weird to not see fireworks last night and have a barbecue with my family, which is what I normally do. On the other part of my mind,…
