"First of all I want
to refer to Cormac, who kind of became my substitute brother.
Before I came here I would not have imagined to build up such
an intensive relationship with that little fellow! Thoughts about
kidnapping have already come to mind (only joking!). But I really
have to say that he is a great child and we get along fabulously.
That could not be any better!
Deirdre and David have also become part of my family.
Whenever I need someone to talk to or some advice they are there
for me. I do feel at home here in their family (otherwise I would
not have extended my stay abroad for 2 months!).
All of them are very open, interesting and they
have a good sense of humour!
During my time here I made trips to Belfast, Galway,
Westport and Wexford, so I have seen really nice parts of Ireland!
Especially the countryside is beautiful with sheep almost everywhere
but where they are supposed to be. I will come back soon!!!
You could not have given me a better family - thank
you!"
