The Eurovision Song Contest (Haderslev) Wednesday 21st March








This is undoubtedly one of my Erasmus experiences that will remain close to my heart. After many long hard conversations with my partner in crime Kerri-Ann, we finally picked the song that we would enter into the Eurovision Song Contest. On the evenings leading up to the 'big day', Kerri-Ann switched roles from being my relaxed and laidback friend (once known as my fellow Danish Crusader), to my official coach, driven by the knowledge of Ireland coming a mere second just the year before. Indeed, I will admit that the evening provided an array of various entertainmant from all corners of Europe, however, when i realised that the famous traditional Irish air, 'She Moved throu' the Fair', that I had sang had scoped us the prize I couldn't help but feel pride. The pictures of the contest shown above are of Sofie and Myrium performing their entry for the Dutch speaking part of Belgium, myself singing my piece, and then finally myself with the prize of first place. A great night for us Irish girls!!
