The arrival and my first few days in Ireland
My host family, which had been my girlfriend's au pair family last year, welcomed me very nicely and helped me during my first days. I am very thankful to the family Clissmann....

During my last few days in Avoca, I decided to do some nature hikes. Firstly, on Wednesday I walked about 10km on the Wicklow Way, which is a famous hiking trail in County Wicklow and about 132km long. The countryside through the Wicklow Mountains National Park was grant. I walked near a region called Luggala, where they were shooting the Vikings. Therefore there were many TV production companies. In spite of the their trucks, I took some nice photos for you.
The following day I went to Glendalough, which is another village in the Wicklow Mountains National Park and part of the Wicklow Way too. There I walked about 15km among forests and lakes. Finally I decided to hike on the top of the mountain Mullacor. It was very tiring.
On Friday I went together with the family Clissmann to the Arklow primary school of their daughter Zoe. They had a project day with many desks from different countries. For this reason I stayed at the German desk togehter with Zoes father Kilian, who is a quarter German, and some German aupairs. It was grant to see the kids smiling. The day contiunued with good news. I received my PPS number and my debit card. So everything worked and I won't have to do much red tape in the following weeks. Afterwards I traveled to Lucan, where I will stay for minimum 1 month with the family Canning. They welcomed me very lovely and I am happy to stay here. Lucan is situated in the east of Dublin and next to Leixlip, where I start working on Monday at the HP company.
On Saturday I watched a football match of little kids and in the evening I went to Dublin City Centre to visit some Pubs together with Anna from
Ravensburg and my flatmate Stefan. I just can recommend Irish whiskey!
