A Wanderer in Ireland

A group of international students who graduated between 2019 and 2020 have created a petition to have their Third Level Graduate Visa (Stamp 1G) extended due to the challenges they have faced in securing employment (see below).

ICOS supports the petition and also believes that a visa extension for all international students currently in Ireland should be considered by the Department of Justice.

Living alone in a new country is not easy. Sometimes that people treat you unfairly makes it even tougher. So appreciate who treats you nicely. They can be a stranger who says ’Hello!’ to you on your way or who sometimes sends a ’How are you?’ message just to check up on you!

Have you ever seen ’Love, Rosie’ movie?
If yes, did you notice the amazing sea view from Tara Hall, a boutique guesthouse where Rosie stayed in? It was filmed in the Howth Cliff Walk, a stunning coastal path for those who love hiking 🏃

My heart was melting with this beautiful moment!

A great spot for swimming or relaxing with your family ☀️

Only 30 minutes by train from Dublin, you’ll fall in love with this scenic seaside village at first sight. It was a good day out by walking down Howth Pier and visiting the Lighthouse.

A bird is waiting for the train to the middle of nowhere!

They are in love ♥️ ♥️

This gorgeous hidden beach is a great place for relaxing on a stunning day 🏝

National Botanic Gardens of Ireland is now opening again. We haven't been allowed to go inside the greenhouses yet but can have a one-way walk around to enjoy the beauty of the plants and flowers there. 🌸 🌺 🌱 🌳

Such a quiet beach I have been to. It was good for a day out and had a barbeque with friends. But it also made me feel missing the beautiful beaches where I could lay down on an outdoor lounger chair and enjoyed some chillout music in my country 🏝

Sitting quietly on the beach at night with our beloved is a sweet moment that says a lot!

First time I have ever seen dandelions in reality. This kind of flower is considered as a symbol of fighting through the challenges of life as well as the sun's power. We all are going through a challenging time of Coronavirus pandemic. Let's go out to get the sunshine but remember to keep social distancing. We all stay safe and well!

When springtime comes, flowers are blooming everywhere in Ireland!

Spring is coming and it's getting warm. Good time to hang out and play outdoor. However, all have to stay home to protect ourselves from the Corona outbreak. It's weird and tough time ever but we have more time for ourselves. Let's spend this time with our family, work on our indoor hobbies. Once the summer comes, the pandemic is over, things are back to normal, then we can hang out with nature again 🌞

Just took a long walk through the Ticknock forest to get a bit of fresh air while the COVID-19 situation is getting worse. It really helped to release your stress and sorrow. Hopefully, everyone will be safe and everything will get better soon.
