GEAI Volunteers

Hello! My name is Linda Liis, I am 29 years old and from Estonia. More precisely I am from a small town called Rakvere which has just about 15 000 people. Rakvere is known for its medieval castle dating back to the 5th or 6th century and its huge bull statue right next to the […]

HERE WE ARE! We in Good Energies Alliance Ireland are delighted to share exciting news that marks a major milestone in our growth journey. Last year it was obvious that our old website was becoming increasingly difficult to navigate and less intuitive. It no longer met our needs or those of our users. Based on […]

Hello! My name is Gleb, I’m 23 years old, and I come from Ukraine. When I think about what has shaped me the most, the first thing that comes to mind is people — their stories, their struggles, and their incredible ability to keep going even when life feels overwhelming. Understanding this strength has always […]

Buongiorno! My name is Martina, freshly exported from a small Italian town near Turin called Venaria Reale. I speak fluent sarcasm, packed way too much useless stuff, and I’m currently trying to survive without Italian coffee — surprisingly, I’m managing so far. But… ask me again in two weeks! For years, I dreamed of living […]

One of the first things that comes to my mind when I think about Ireland is the untamed Nature and the kind people, the first time that I experienced living in this beautiful country was eight years ago when I worked as a waitress in a lovely cafe in front of the ocean in Dun […]

I love asking questions – one of my favorites has to be: If you could go anywhere right now, where would you go? Interestingly enough, Ireland has always been at the top of my list. Having grown up in rural Germany and later getting the chance to call the Black Forest and the Adirondacks my […]
