Now that my internship is done, I'm trying to travel to as many places in Ireland as I can. I left for Greystones around 1. To get there, I took the Dublin bus to city centre, and hopped on the DART for a 1 hour train ride. It was the final stop. My internship coordinator is originally from there and my friend Conor lives there. Conor and I were going to try to meet up, but he got out of work at 5 and I left at 5 on the dot.
While in Greystones, I pretty much sat on the beach for a long time, walked through the sand, went to a tiny coffee shop called Spendlove Coffee, and spent most of my time reflecting about my abroad experience. I think traveling in Scotland helped me find myself (as cliche as that sounds), and I gotta make the most of this final week.
Laura (from my school) and I met up for drinks and weird "taco chips" at the Nubar later, and spent a long time talking about our experiences in Dublin, what we were doing this summer...etc. It was great catching up with her, as I have not hung out with anyone from my school since our classes finished on May 1st - and now that we all have different travel plans, it's been difficult to see people.
