Arcadia Ireland

What a summer we have had here at the Arcadia Dublin Centre. A fantastic group are just about to depart but they have certainly left their mark on Ireland. They have managed to capture this through photos and videos and we have had the highest entries to our video and photo competition in years. 

The winner of the competition will receive a $50 Amazon.com voucher which will be sent directly to their email. Here are our top 5 (and believe me, they were hard to pick!) and don't forget to check out our Facebook Page and Arcadia Ireland on Instagram to see the rest of our fantastic entries. #ArcadiaIreland. 

Runners Up:

Emeline Brudwick.

Rathmines, Co. Dublin. 

(Cool fact about this picture- it is the view from Arcadia's Rathmines Square housing!) 

Alexis Bailey. 

Co. Galway, Ireland. 

Daniel Gonzalez.

Glendalough, Co. Wicklow. 

Megan Van Son. 

Spanish Point, Co. Galway.

(Titled 'Scatter Brained' we here at the centre all agree that this really sums up study abroad- taking flight to new adventures, but sometimes a little scattered!! Megan has started a new photography venture on Instagram called @gowaybeyond. We are keeping an eye on it- she's one to watch!)

And the winner is...

Zihao Chen.

Bray, Co. Wicklow. 

(How well does this capture 'Old Ireland' in a modern way? The best part, it's a stones throw away from Dublin City Centre and really easy to get to.)

We were over the moon with the entries this summer and the quality was unbelievable. Thanks so much to everyone that entered. 

Video Competition Winner:

They say a picture tells a thousand words. That must mean that a video tells a million! Congratulations to Megan Van Son who is the winner of our summer video competition. Check out her amazing experience here or in the video above!
