I traveled all the way to Ireland to learn about its history, culture, and people. While I'm here, I volunteer and help my community, meet new friends, and explore new places. One of the things I' most excited about is hearing how the Irish Parliament works and how laws are made in another country.
Traveling to Ireland helps me see how people in different parts of th world live, learn, and solve probelms. I want to understand how countries work together and how laws can help make life fair and safe for everyone.
Through my journey, I hope to share what I learn, inspire students to be curious about other countries, and show that learning can happen anywhere--not just in a classroom. I'm excited to take you along on my adventure in Ireland!
