When I was
in 7th grade, in the subject of History we were studying some countries which
were involved in the Second World War and although it role wasn’t so big like
the other nations, I had to talk about Ireland.
So my
classmate and I (the work was on pairs) started to investigate Ireland, besides
it influence on war, how are the laws, the president, how Irish live, their
beliefs and more things that slowly started to catch my attention.
And when I
saw the pictures of this country, I immediately fell in love whit all the green
that appeared and the beauty of the place. I was fascinated, so I started to
look on all the credence that have Irish people, and the things I founded made
me want to go in that moment to Ireland.
Halloween
and San Patrick’s day, for example, are the most famous national festivals which
lasts almost three days and gathers thousand people. The Leprechauns (trolls) are
also part of this and the country’s mythology. The legend says that if you
catch one of them, you’ll get luck.
Beside
this, Celtic heritage influences music and food. Those things are very
important for Irish too, just what I mostly like in life.

A wonderful country:) My grandparents are from Waterford. Do you know the singer Van Morrison? His album Astral Weeks is one of my favorite records of all time:)
