hello to the few who see this, i’m typing from Ireland!!
i am from the U.S., but i am currently studying abroad for a semester and just had to take the chance not only to travel, but to see the beautiful country of Ireland! i’ve been wanting to go here for so long, and i’m so grateful to study at one of Irelands top universities and explore the beauty it has to offer. i’ve been to the countryside and its cities, and it’s just amazing to experience.
some years ago, i was battling severe depression and burnout. i had no idea who i was and i could not envision a future for myself at all. one way i expressed myself at the time was through writing poems. one in particular was simply titled “ireland,” wherein a traveler is asking if anyone knows how to get there. to me, ireland meant happiness — going somewhere far, far away from your problems to a new land that’s green, peaceful, and beautiful; where you can just be yourself, free and happy. i never thought i would ever actually get the chance to experience it one day. it felt impossible.
needless to say, i finally found the way to ireland đź’š
slowly but surely, i am creating the life i want for myself.
