It's said that Ireland, once visited, is never forgotten, and for once the blarney rings true. The Irish landscape has a mythic resonance, the country's history is almost tangible, and its people seem put on earth expressly to restore faith in humanity. The weather may sometimes give you the impression that you're swimming through an airborne ocean, but the emerald green countryside scattered with luxuriant wildflowers, castle ruins, magical mountain and lake vistas will compensate for the webbed feet you need to grow. As beautiful as Ireland is, the country’s main attraction is its people - their hospitality, their felicitous use of language and their marvelous sense of humour ensure a warm welcome. Enter a pub in Ireland on a rainy day, and you’ll find a room full of friends. Whatever your program requirements, Ireland can deliver.
