Im actually new to the states I came here from Wexford, Ireland almost eight months ago. I still feel a little out of place and am wanting to explore new york. To answer your question yes I still have my brogue (accent) and am striveing to become more american. I look like a toughguy on the outside but on the inside im as soft as whip cream, i am very hard worker but not just in my work life but in my personal as well. Wow it's really hard to describe myself in one paragraph so if you wanna learn more about the smilin irishman let me know.
