When I finished the high school, everybody saw that I was going straightly to university,
but I decided to have an exchange year and learning a new language that would be good
for my future. I think Dublin is a great option if you are
not really familiar with English. You have many options apart school, you can
obviously go to school and learn grammar and whatever, but you can go to meetings or library
or even if you go out the weekends you can meet people like native people from Dublin
or Ireland. They have a really strong and funny accent, but they always try to speak
slowly for you and they are so funny and friendly. You can make a lot of friends here from many
places. I made a great friendship that I will never forget. That friendship was really good.
When I have arrived I was only 17 years. My documents and everything in the law were different
to me and I had to have a visa, SEDA helped me with all the papers, documents or letters,
and they give me a kit to do everything. My grammar was like terrible, really terrible
and they have the patient to help you in everything. You have two parts in the class. You have
first grammar and then you have like a conversation class. In the second class I was better, but
in the first class I was terrible, but as time passes by I learnt things that helped
me to have a better level of English. I think the fact that I was living with a host family
helped me a lot. Nowadays, I am more independent, I know what
I like, what I want, what I don't like. I went to Belgium, London, Spain, even Africa
and Morocco, because It's near actually. And this is an experience that I will never ever
forget. I definitely think that it was the best decision to came here and have this amazing year.
