Six months in Ireland
by: Galwaygirl99 - ColumbiaProgram: API: Experience Galway, Ireland (Scholarships Available)Awesome. I can't imagine a better experience. The program directors were always available and very helpful. The Irish people by far were such a Genuine and friendly culture. The physical scenery was unreal. The rain didn't even bother me and made me appreciate every momen of sunshine. I did not get homesick at all.
