I met many nice people, from all over the world, that was huge ! to be able to discover a plenty of points of view from only one place, just by sharing with foreigners !
This draw is dedicated to my travel mate who supported me, and resisted the temptation of drowning me in the Liffey :)

At our hosts', the first time (and the only one time) I turned on the TV, it was the sport channel. I felt weird, as if I was Harry Potter when he discovered the Quiddich, and all the craze growing around. Sport, that he never heard about before... that was my point concerning the Hurling.
This is a smart mix between ground-hockey, cricket and soccer. Goals are like rugby ones and soccer ones which had been mixed up, and there are goalkeepers. 3 points if you put the ball in, 1 point if you put it above (if I remember well).
There is also an other sport, played on the same grounds, without hurley, with a soccer ball. Players can catch the ball with hands, but when they move, they have to dribble (as basket ball), and use their feet to shoot. It's called Gaelic Football.
