Hi everyone !!
I am Sarai, I come from Cuenca, small but charming city of Spain, although I was born in Madrid… I have come to Irlanda through Leonardo’s internship and I wouldn’t have imagined I would come exactly to Cork!
I have studied Tourism, and since I was a child I have been « good » on English…at least my marks were vey good, until I went to London, two years ago, and I discovered that I couldn’t understand anyone, and almost noone could understand me ! So I decided to apply for a job and stay during the summer, unfortunately, I wasn’t able to stay there, either the year after…However, when I was finishing my degree, I though, a beautiful experience would be to serve as a volunteer…and through an NGO I stayed in Italy for 6 months…Bello, dai !! I learnt not only Italian and improved my English, but I knew great people as well as I helped and I was useful. After that it was obviously that I really wanted to go to improve my English at all ! ..and why not Ireland ??
I applied for Leonardo’s Internship…until today, that I am here !!
I’m going to take part of EazyCork for nine weeks and I am glad of that, knowing people everyday, and breathing such a helpful and friendly atmosphere ! Thank you !
Honestly, I am very happy here, although… I would have prefered come maybe in another season..like winter, autumn…because of this changeable and crazy weather (sorry)…the summer is so different from my
country that sometimes it seems another world 🙂
Apart from that, the city is very hospitable and welcoming, I enjoy the « coming and going » and the city’s activity, live music everywhere, irish teas, « Beamish », etc etc…
Anyway, for a long time I have been living in a flat with people, not alone, and being indepent too, but it s a beautiful experience living with differents countries’ people ; you always learn something new!!
In conclusion, I could say that I am a sociable person, I like going out, enjoy and litening music, meeting with people, what’s more, great people , I like cooking too, and the good gastronomy as well (Mediterrean diet), skating, the beach…
I like always to be in a good mood, and especially, I believe that one smile, in the most of the cases lets you go further as well as the results always can be higher. 🙂
