I am very excited to be presented with the opportunity to travel with the University of Illinois Exploers Travel Prgram. The destination of this trip is Ireland. Ten days traveling, exploring and learning about Ireland’s rich culture and history. My ancestors are from Ireland and this trip provides me with the experience of a lifetime to learn about my family’s customs, culures, and traditions as well as the opportunity to create a possibility of enrichment, expansion of world perspective and a true appreciation of life’s opportunities.
