Concerts and traveling are in my opinion the best way to spend your money. So a few weeks ago, I did just that. Me and a few friends rented a car, drove to Cologne (Köln in German) and went to see Flume! It was definitely a night to remember. I was in charge of driving….
(amster)dam what a weekend
This past weekend, I spent my days in Amsterdam. I went with Ada and Ellen, another girl that I have met during my time here at Maynooth. The plane ride was nice and short, and my playlist was perfect for the mood so that helped for sure. We arrived sometime in the evening, and Elexsa…
Home in 30 Days
A month from today I go back home and get to cuddle my pup and finally speak with good friends and family in person. The countdown on my phone keeps me going honestly. My body is ready for two weeks of non-stop eating because I miss Hispanic and vegan food so much. I also miss…
Reflection Tuesdays
November 22nd One more month left. One more month of cold mornings, train rides to the Bremen Hauptbahnhof, rainy days and streets filled with bakeries. Quite frankly I will miss Germany. I never wanted the time to fly by because I do like this place very much. The University is alright, not my favorite because…

Response to “FutureMe” letter.
Rereading my letter was more interesting than I thought it would have been. In the beginning, prior to this program I thought it was a waste of a requirement but I am actually glad that it was. Throughout my pre-pearture letter, I asked “FutureMe” a series of questions. A few of these questions are posted…
Oxford (9/24/16)
*Flash back* This trip was very last minute, it was planned and booked all within 2-3 hours on Thursday afternoon. The original idea was to go to Bristol but due to freshers week eveything was completely booked. The travel time to Oxford was about 2 hours via coach bus and the air bnb was located…
Time to Take a Trip
Phew! What a time it has been lately here! So, as an update, my speech was anything but successful during the contest. In the military we commonly say, “proper planning prevents piss-poor performance” or “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail”. This was exactly the case during that time but I know to…
