How do you write your first post?

I have absolutely no idea.

I'm Isy, hello btw, and currently 16 years old. Though I live in a small town in the west of Germany and English isn't my first language, I will write this blog in English.

If you started wondering by now, why on earth I decided on writing a blog, when I live in a small town where absolutely absolutely nothing interesting happens, I am not good at writing and have obviously no idea of grammar, case sensitivity and comma placement, you should know that I am an exchange student.

Not at the moment, but I will be, when I have started my exchange year at the 26th of August.

I think that the question, in which country I am about to live, is a bit unecessary, looking at the big picture at the top, the colours and the headline of course.

If the question "why Ireland?" will pop up in your mind right now, you have to know that I like it.

And when I say, I like it, I mean the landscape, the accent, the culture, the sports, the history, the people and even the weather, though everyone says it's rainy. Living in Germany is a good condition to adjust.
It rains here all the time too.
 An exchange year is a lot of work. For everyone. Especially for the exchange student.

    1.  You have to choose an organisation, which will organise your stay and will choose your host family, so making the right decision is definetely important! Check. (Btw. I decided to go with into.)
    2. You have to apply for the organisation and get in. Check.
    3. You have to fill in the application forms, which is PRETTY much work. Check.
And if you are finished with all of that and if your documents arrived in your host country and if you have nothing left to do than waiting,

than you can start writing a blog.

So do I.

Best wishes and slán,

Isy :)

Ps. "Slán is irish for goodbye.
