My new home...

I feel like I am finally settling into my new home here in Ireland.  I live in Thomond Village, which is across the river from campus, but is still only about a 10 minute walk to the main campus.  In the picture below, you can see the river and my village.  I live in the building and the right side of the picture in Wren house (each house is a different bird).

I have five roommates, 1 American and 4 Irish, I have not met any of them however.  Although it has been lonely in my building, I have met a few girls in village.  Not many of the Irish students are back from break, so there are really only international students around.  Right now, I hang out with a few Americans, a Greek girl, and a few German guys.  It's amazing how well everyone speaks English! I can't wait to see what other students I will met in the coming weeks!

Today I have a double decker bus tour of Limerick, hopefully I'll have some good pictures to post!
