IRELAND

 SURF AND MOHER CLIFFS On September 25 we visited the Cliffs of Moher, this was our last excursion in Ireland so we really wanted to and were very excited, t he weather that day was horrible, a lot of rain and wind. The cliffs were beautiful. After eating we went surfing, s ome of the spanish students didn't want to surf because of the cold, but most of us we were very excited, the surfing was great and a lot of fun, I learned a lot. After two hour of surfing we get out of the water i was frozen, it was very cold. After surfing we had a hot chocolate, when we were warmed up we returned home.

 TRIP TO CORK  We visited Cork with all the Esrasmus students. I went on a double-decker bus, I had never been on a bus like that. We all ate at a cultural market where there was food from all over the world. I ate Mexican and it was really good. We visited the city and the port, Cork was not very different from Limerik, both cities have the same architecture and the same stores,  the biggest difference is that in limerik there is no sea.  I liked limerik more than cork, I think because the weather was better in limerik. 

    TRIP TO LIMERIK All erasmus students went to limerik, w hen we arrived we walked through the streets and through the parks.  Irish students read historical descriptions of the places we visited such as the Shanoon River.  Also we visited a food market, inside there were small food stores, but it was so expensive. In Ireland is popular  go to Primark to shop, in every city we visit we go in Finally we went to the old part of Limerik, where we saw a castle and a cemetery. I really liked limerik and it think is very different to a city in Spain

 THE FAMILY My host family is four sisters, my partner has a twin who has a spanish studient too so in total we was eight people in the house.  Something that surprised me was that they are not so affectionate between them like we are in Spain. The only moment that we was together was in the meals. They don't hug or kiss each other frequently. Parents work at a farm with cows they also have five horses and two dogs.             The  house was far from the school so we had to take the car and the bus to go. Everyone in the family is super nice and helped us a lot, they also explained something to us if we didn't understand it.

  FIRST IMPRESSIONS  From the first day we communicated by phone, my host partner and sh e was super friendly and kind. We send each other photos and talk about what we would do in Ireland.  When we arrived in Ireland all the Erasmus students made us welcome posters.  The family from the first moment was very attentive and helped us with everything.  When I entered school for the first time I was surprised, it was very different from Spain and much bigger than what I expected. The truth is that I didn't expect Ireland like that, I loved it.

THE PLAUGHING DAY This day is an agricultural festival. You can buy there materials and maquines for the field. Also there is outles of sportwear, where the people make rows for hours for buy it This festival is so popular, they go 80.000 people every day of he three. i went there with my host family and we didn´t stop walking, eating and buying.
