I have only spent two days in Ireland, and I am loving every second. Sport Changes Life has not only introduced me to such amazing people, but they are also teaching me so much along the way. Today we visited the peace wall. I had no idea that this even existed until today. I learned that there was a divide in the Irish people within the catholic republicans and the protestant nationalists and that this specific wall is what used to divide them. It is great to see all the graffiti on the walls because it shows a sign of unity, which makes sense why it is now called the peace wall. Every day I learn something new about the Irish culture, and I looking forward to discovering so much more!
