Padre defraudado

Para estar en un aula solos 20 alumnos españoles no es necesario ir a Irlanda.
No sé qué entienden por inmersión lingüística.
Es una estafa total. Y yo pensaba llevar luego a las hermanas.... ja

The treasury of experience and knowledge

I've stayed in Kilkenny for 3 weeks and the only thing I regret about is that my journey was so short! In the Mackdonald academy everyone can find a comrade, because there are children of all age groups. I'm 18 and I did not have any hope to meet someone to spend time with. But I was surprised to make a few really good friends there! The same I can say about yonger boys and girls : after 3 lessons and lunch they already spoke and loughed like they were old friends! The athmosphere was very kind and cosy, no one staied alone. Elder students were very attentive to their little colleagues, children played valleyball, football and hurling all together! What about activities, they were very exciting and so different! We visited beautiful places, dark caves, a forest with deers, ancient univercity and strongholds! All guides had legible perfect speech. In my host family I never felt any discomfort, I found common languege at once! And I really miss them, they filled my journey with warmth and care. As a conclusion, I'd like to say it is not only english skills I got there, also I saw the country, made good friends and got a few lessons of life.
