Doing addiction support services work in Dublin has been very eye-opening and informative. I have done similar public health work back home, so seeing the differences between the States and Ireland was fascinating to see how services differ and related between the two countries. The work I did here has helped open my eyes to the kind of work I would like to do in the future which has been extremely helpful in navigating for grad school in the future. Having weekend programs planned by the program gave me a well-needed break from the intense work and allowed me to see more of Ireland I wouldn't have thought to visit otherwise.
