Irish roots eh? the red hair should’ve been a dead giveaway. I worked in Dublin a few months ago for Microsoft PSS desk and made a lot of friends there. I’ll be out there this summer too, for the electric picnic festival and with a little luck, i’ll make it to the nexrt Paddy’s as well ^^
Holland is my place of birth and the place where i’ll always come back to, but i’ve found a wonderfull second home in Dublin :D

Yeah, my grandmother is just a couple or three generations off the island. I’ve been in contact with some of our family who live over there and would love to go visit someday.

Wow! You wanted to be a teacher? Any thoughts of carrying out that dream? The education field is ripe for hip, intelligent people like yourself.
Nicki
hehe, yeah … though the pay sadly pales in comparison to other fields.
It’s one of those “If I ever decide to get out of IT” scenarios. I have two options I’ve thought about at length: cooking and teaching. I would love to go to Culinard. That’s my first career change choice, second would be to attend U of A or UAB for teaching.
