Which is better for study abroad: Netherlands or Ireland?


Which is better for study abroad: Netherlands or Ireland?
I am specifically looking at Den Haag (Netherlands) or Limerick/Galway (Ireland). I also might mention that I am an American student looking for a great European travel/study abroad experience. Thanks for your input!

Congrats on wanting to study abroad! Both the Netherlands and Ireland are great places. I have never been to Den Haag, but I know Limerick, Galway and most of Ireland pretty well. The areas have great universities, amazing sites, and fun food. Galway is great if you like a cool city/college town, as well as the coast. My cousin lives in Galway and loves it. You're only a couple hours away from Dublin and most of Ireland. You can easily fly from Galway, Dublin, or Cork to most of Europe. Here are a few articles on Ireland and Galway, from a study abroad perspective (http://bit.ly/cSB5y0). If you're still looking for programs in each place, check out a new study abroad/travel website called Gulliver. It has profiles for a couple thousand programs around the world. Could give you an idea of what's out there. Here are some programs for Galway (http://bit.ly/9Xqjf9) and Limerick (http://bit.ly/cf7H2F). Hope this helps!
