So it's my first week back in Dundalk after an amazing year away in Heilbronn, Germany with seven fellow classmates. Words can't even begin to describe how remarkable and life changing the experience was. It taught me so much about myself and I made some lifelong friends from every corner of the world. It really opened my eyes to different cultures and lifestyles. 
With a bottle of German beer costing about 20 cent and a bottle of wine at just over a euro, we were never short of a good time. By the end of the year the bars and nightclubs in Heilbronn were begging for all the Irish to be gone as we were the wildest crowd of people the town had ever seen. I have a million and one memories from the Erasmus year and would do it all again in a heartbeat!Below is a video that captures what an amazing time I had abroad.. and the funny thing is, this is only pictures from the first semester!
Now it's back to reality and into our fourth and final year of college. I've got a house in Rockfield with five of the girls so I'm sure we will continue the fun. Yesterday was my birthday so tonight we will celebrate! So far the classes are really good and we have such a handy timetable. Although our Erasmus year was more of a holiday than it was college, I still learnt a lot on the academic side, which will be of good use this year. I really need to put my head down now into the books this year and make sure I come out of college with my degree. But for now I won't worry too much about that, all I am going to worry about is making sure I have a good night tonight. :)
