EIL Intercultural Learning

To say an experience was life changing would most definitely be an understatement to my experiences this Summer. On the 10th of August I was one of 12 lucky Irish students to travel to the other side of the world, Hong Kong. Without EIL Ireland giving me this opportunity I don’t think I would have ever imagined a trip to Asia before I was 20! Personally, after the long flight from Amsterdam and the collection of the bags from the belt, I was so nervous to meet our Hong Kong delegates. I had no idea what to expect, I actually had butterflies!
