Nomi's Journey to Ireland

Current Location

Cork Ireland

Hello! My name is Nomi Smith and I'm studying creative writing and researching Irish folklore and language in Cork, Ireland. I hope you'll join me in uncovering the pagan roots and history here!

Logbooks

Coming to the end of semester 1, this has been a very study-heavy week, which I worry leaves very little room for grand adventure. However, I find that this week is also more true to everyday life. 

Journals

Here we learn about hurling and camogie, meet Seán Óg Ó hAilpín, celebrate St. Patrick's Day, and learn a couple more words of the Irish language!

Field Notes

In this short interview, Mr. O'Conor reflects on Irish culture and history, his own daily life and values, and shares a message to American high school students!

Albums

Over a weekend trip from Dublin To Wexford, in this album we will see some of the oldest structures in Ireland, built after The Anglo-Norman invasion.
