What am I going to write about?

As an international student living in Ireland I notice aspects of Irish culture that the Irish themselves take for granted. My life here is not one of the typical international student who tends to spend most of their time socialising with other international students and not really experiencing Irish culture to its fullest. Rather I am a long term resident with a normal life where I have been experiencing the Irish family life, Irish culture, the Irish personality, its pros and cons. My experiences of Irish culture have fascinated me and it is something I want to write about. As a result this blog will allow me to share my experiences of Irish culture from the inside.

I won’t be the first person blogging about Ireland and not the last but I think my point of view is different. I will be examining the reality of Irish life which will be different from the colourful picture of Ireland that has been created by the international community.

From my own experience and some friend’s points of view I am planning to tell and remark the realities of Ireland, the good and the bad and the differences between Ireland and my country, Peru. Covering not only the student life but outings, food, people’s behaviour, the culture and generally everyday life in Ireland, good and bad. The aim of this blog will be to share, inform and over all entertain the bloggers with my stories and also see what they have to say about the way they are being seen by foreign people who come to live in Ireland. It will highlight some interesting aspects of Irish society and at the same time help those who are not Irish with some interesting facts about Ireland.
