Testimonial from students:
“Through this exchange experience, I am discovering Ireland, its food, its culture and its famous places. I am learning a lot about other countries too thanks to the other exchange students who are participating in this experience with me in Presentation Castleisland. I am living this experience to the fullest and it will remain forever in my heart. Moving away from my country has helped me to appreciate more of the things I take for granted at home. After this experience, I now know I want to do an Erasmus at university. Unrepeatable and unforgettable.”
