TITLE

SUMMARY

Map of Ireland

Ireland is such a fascinating country with incredibly beautiful nature, endless places to visit, rich culture, delicious food and lovely people. Since arriving, I have had the opportunity to visit lots of different parts of the country and absolutely love it!

Luciana Reis – Brazil , BSc (Hons) in Early Childhood Care, Health & Education

My name is Luciana Reis. I’m an international student from Brazil. I came to Donegal Letterkenny campus in 2015 to study a degree in Early Childhood Care, Health and Education.

I must confess that Ireland has something extremely special and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived here. My experience in the Donegal Letterkenny campus has been great. The campus has a lively and busy atmosphere with plenty happening all the time.

On the one hand, you have a campus with an impressive structure, delivering an excellent standard of education with qualified professionals who are extremely helpful and support you throughout the course. On the other hand, the campus allows you to have a healthy social experience, make new friends, enjoy a different culture and take part in clubs and societies.

To anyone considering studying abroad, I would have to say that it is an amazing experience. You grow not only as a student but as a person as well. You also get to have a new place to call home and to make new friends that will last a lifetime!
