EIL Intercultural Learning

I’m really enjoying life here in Mexico and even though its extremely different to Dublin, I feel very much at home here. Its very easy to fall to Mexico’s charm and feel like you never want to leave.

I went to feed the deer and clean their pen with one of the guides a few days after arriving. That's when i saw my first ever snake in the wild! I was like a child at the zoo! It was a venomous snake though so I was very careful of where i walked for the rest of the day! We then went to pick coconuts for the little restaurant on the island and I attempted to climb my first ever coconut tree (attempted being the key word!). I let the guide do the climbing while I worked the rope from the safety of the ground! It's tough work but the reward of drinking the fresh coconut water afterwards was well worth it!
