If I had to choose the most enjoyable aspect of the trip was seeing Krakow, Poznan and Wroclaw these three cities were absolutely beautiful from architecture to culture all three had an abundance of both. This is not to say that the placement wasn't incredible in its own way, the things we were taught were incredible from programming a robotic welding arm to designing parts in a Solid Edge, to designing websites in HTML. I enjoyed every part of the trip even going to buy groceries in the shop.
I developed skills in robotic arm programming this was a completely new area for me so to say that this was a learning experience is an understatement. I developed skills in HTML, PHP and JavaScript all of which are once again completely new to me so it was yet another incredible learning experience for me personally.
On the final week we learned how to use Solid Edge a variant of Solidworks which believe it or not was once again something completely new to me it was one more thing to add to the long list of amazing experiences that I had during my trip in Poland. The cultural experiences were invaluable and have changed my perspective and outlook on life forever. This experience has been a massive help in furthering my education and career at the beginning of the year I was happy to stay in Ireland for the next 5 years getting a degree but now I feel like I will have to go back to Poland for my education there was too much left to see and do in all the cities I visited not to mentions the ones I didn't get a chance to visit.

I enjoyed the experience of working abroad and working in I.T. based environments. Meeting new people who work day to day in this environments. Living away from home for 3 weeks. I have developed confidence in working on tasks that were set to me . I have learned more about different programming languages and the different types of applications used in these companies. I believe the Erasmus+ experience will help me achieve my future plans by giving me the experience of working in a major company daily. This has given me an insight to what is done day to day. It provides me with the knowledge I could use in the future to help me work hard. It helps me with working with people and working in different programming environments.

The work placement was excellent, they were very polite and help me all the time if I had any doubt. They were pending of us if we were OK or if we needed something. I have improved and practiced my IT skills when I was over there, I have learnt new skills like design on solid edge and some security tips on websites, I practice some code with robotic arm to weld and it was pretty amazing to do that, I would never imagine I would control a robotic arm. It helped me to confirm that I am in the right way and it gave me so much motivation to keep with my studies and reach my goal. The Erasmus+ helped me to improve my CV in the IT sector, I have made some helpful contacts for future opportunities in jobs or as professional. I have made new friends from the Erasmus+ with I went to Poland, they are new connections as well that might help me in a near future with the studying and work. Poland was a destination that I had in my mind and I wanted to go there to know the place and culture and thank to the Erasmus I could make it true and very graceful about it. I made great memories that they will stay with me forever.

On this trip I have enjoyed the most Polish people the way the were, how friendly and welcome, the organisation it was well organised and safe place to work. Working in the big organisation with professionals it makes me feel that could be good for the organisation and the new skills that i have learned in this organisation is the new skills that maybe i cannot get the chance of earning anywhere. Erasmus + is the big opportunity for me as it open my mind in different areas such as working within the organisation, with professionals gives me the taste being motivated, looking at the goals with better view.

The most I enjoyed in the placement was the exploring the cities and the Polish culture also the way how the companies are working abroad. The skills that I developed over there was my problem solving skills, confidence that I will be able to work in IT area, also i was able to develop my work Ethic in IT area .The Erasmus+ program helped me to gain more confident in my self. Program helped me to realise that I will be actually be able to find a job and work in the IT area because that is my goal in the future. Erasmus+ helped me to gain a lot experience like cultural and also practical I had received what I expected from it which was to see how the IT companies operate because that was the only one area I haven't work in the past.
