This past week I finally got into a bit of a routine with my internship and my time outside the office as well. It felt more normal to get up at a certain time every day and I’m familiar with the neighborhood I’m in and feel more comfortable walking around without navigation. I also found…

Learning As I Go
After my second week as an intern at the Restaurants Association of Ireland, I’m starting to feel more comfortable in my role but of course I’m still learning as I go.

Putting the Pieces Together
Entering the third week of my internship means I have gotten pretty accustomed to my work environment, especially in the physical sense. To preface, my company has been moving into a new building.

It is now the end of week three and I can not believe how quickly the time has passed! There’s so much advice and information I want to share but I’m going to wait…
No Rubrics in the Real World
After a long week of healing from my stressful trips to the hospitals here in Dublin, I finally got out to experience a nice weekend trip to Edinburgh. My friend Valerie and I embarked on an early morning trip to the Dublin airport to get to Edinburgh at around 8 am. We had the whole…
