Julia's Trip to Ireland 2019

Globalization can be defined as the process by which businesses or organizations develop international influence or start operating on an international scale. According to research, Ireland is ranked #2 for one of the most globalized countries in the world. There are a few different ways that Ireland has been impacted through globalization. Some of these impacts are its geographic location in the world because the temperature does not fluctuate much throughout the year, English being the primary spoken language makes it easier to do business since that is Ireland's primary language, and Ireland's room for growth. Ireland is one of the least populated European countries which mean there is definitely room for expansion.

One of the stereotypes of Americans that I found was that we are entitled. Being entitled means that one believes they are deserving of privileges or special treatment. It seems as if when Americans travel abroad they expect the locals of said country to cater all of their needs and become rude to the locals when they do not. The reality is that one should be respectful of the people and culture of wherever they are traveling too. If wherever you are traveling does not speak english, respect that. If they do not eat the kinds of foods you are used to, get over it. Traveling the world is about fully immersing yourself into the culture and lifestyle of the country you are visiting, so take it all in!
