September 14th, day 9


 Today was such a nice day, actually it was just like a usual day but I had so much fun. I love school here because we don’t get any homework and we do classes we don’t usually do in Spain. 

I was a little bit worry about religion because I had never been to a religion class and I’m personally not catholic, but it was i great class, I found it interesting to learn a bit about what faith is for people really different to me, and I’m glad I was at that class because I don’t know think I would ever go to a religion class in Spain.

All the other classes were nice too, and today after school we hanged out at the pitch again, this time there was a hurling match, I still don’t really understand the sport but I think this time I was able to get it a bit better. It was really fun but it was raining a lot so I got so cold, I hope I don’t get sick.

use of technology in Ireland

During my three weeks in Ireland, I noticed some differences in how they use technology compared to how we use it in Spain. First of all, the main social media platform they use is Snapchat, and they don't really use Instagram, which is the one we are used to in Spain. The use of technology in schools was also a bit different. Most people have iPads instead of traditional textbooks, and they use them for note-taking in all their classes. While there are some schools in Spain that also use iPads, I don't think it's as common, and it's not the case in our school. I think the use of iPads in class is helpful, especially for the students that have everything they need in the same place and don't need to carry all the books.

my opinion about this experience

I'm currently writing this two months after my flight to Ireland, more than one month after my return to Spain, and almost a month after my Irish host sister left Spain and my house. Nevertheless, I still think about my stay in Ireland as if it was just yesterday. I truly believe I've gained a lot from this exchange: I've gained a lot of new experiences and knowledge, not only in terms of language but also regarding the culture, and I've made new friendships. It goes without saying that spending three weeks in another country, with a host family you don't even know until you arrive, and going to a completely new school, pushes you out of your comfort zone. Initially, this was a bit hard, at least for me, and I must admit that the first few days were challenging. However, it was really worth it. During those three weeks in Ireland, I tried numerous new things and participated in activities I wouldn't have even considered in Spain. My main goal for going to Irelan...

Today after school we had an Irish music night. All the international students were invited, not only the ones doing the Erasmus. This school has a lot of international students, Germans, Italians and Spanish mainly, I already knew most of the other Spanish students, some of them are staying for the whole year and others just for one term.  After school we stayed at the pitch again until seven, the Spanish students did the musical dance because we love it so much, I'm going to miss it when I leave.  The music night started with some Irish dances and songs some really talented students performed.   And it continued with some songs the international students performed, including the Spanish ones, and some games, dancing and more. I had such a good time, we finished the night with some food and then we went home at 9.
