AIFS Program: Maynooth, Ireland

I am Juana Escobedo Bermudez, a Senior Public Health Student at the University of Texas at Arlington. I chose to study abroad in Ireland because I want to learn how conflict and past human catastrophe, such as the Great Famine, have affected public health issues in the country. A fun fact about me is that I volunteered at Carlsbad National Park in New Mexico over Spring Break this year. I was reminded of how much beauty there is on Earth to explore and to take care of. It also encouraged me to start a blog about my travel adventures.
