Going to Ireland was such an amazing experience for me and doing it through Connect-123 made it even better. Connect-123 made it possible for me to make friends and travel while I visited Ireland. Our program coordinator met me on my second day of being in Ireland and explained to me how to get around Dublin, using the public transportation system, how to get to my internship, and the plans for the group’s next few months in Dublin. She planned amazing trips for us including a weekend in Galway, a visit to the Cliffs of Moher, and a tour through Giants Causeway. Having Connect-123’s help during my time abroad gave me a base to pose questions to and a person I knew I could lean on for anything while I was away from home. My internship was through an afterschool center for kids to play and get their energy out before the end of the day. While I was working there I learned to become more patient and understanding. I also strengthened my communication and problem-solving skills because I had to help kids understand why they could not do something like throw a ball at another child. I will always remember my time in Ireland and I can truly say that my internship made it so much better.

This past summer I had the privilege of interning at an at-risk youth program in Dublin. First off, I I could not actually believe what an incredible summer this one became. From the best roommates and the other long-lasting friendships formed from other participants in the program, to all the exciting socials from the beginning of my stay I knew I was meant to be here. As a youth coordinator...

My time in Dublin was unforgettable. Connect-123 placed me in a classroom where I gained valuable knowledge about teaching. The lead teacher at the school was so welcoming and allowed me to take on a full time teaching schedule with her help. It was amazing to be able to try out the career I want to one day have and I owe it all to Connect-123. During my time in...
