Global Issues // Impacts of Globalization in Ireland

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.

Such as all that went into constructing the ship, as well as the sinking of the ship. We even got to go on a short ride that mimicked what the workers would have ridden on to get around the construction of the ship.

Cliffs of Moher - Cork, Ireland

On June 4th we travelled to the Cliffs of Moher. Although the weather was not ideal when we arrived, this was still my favorite place that we visited. A few of us took a different path than the rest of the class and I'm so glad that we did, because the view we came across was breathtaking. The walk up was stressful, because it was raining, super muddy/slippery, and there was no fence to walk along. I wish we would have had more time to explore more of the cliffs though!

On June 2nd we took a ferry to the Aran Islands, where we then took a bus tour around the island. At the end of our trip, we hiked to the top to get a view of the cliff. This was one of the windiest days that we have had, so it was nerve wracking being so close to the edge without the safety of a fence. The view was definitely worth the hike though!
