My name is Saoirse, I’m 16 and I’m in Dominican College, Taylors Hill. I was born in Galway and have lived here all my life. My father is from Galway city and my mother is from Newfoundland, Canada and all of her family still live there so every few summers we go to visit them. I am the eldest child, I have one brother who is 14 and one sister who is 12. I am doing a week of work experience in the Galway Advertiser this week because I was interested in the different areas of work that goes on behind the scenes.
I love Galway because it’s the place where I grew up and all my friends and family live here. I think Galway is a great place because of all the diversity and events that it provides such as The Galway Races and The Arts Festival, along with the beautiful scenery and many beaches along the coast. There is something for everyone in Galway and I am proud to have been born and raised in such an amazing city.
