Welcome to episode 23 of Living Well While Living Online. Today, host Tami Reilly is joined by Mary Steele. From Cork, Ireland, Mary has worked in International Education since 1995. The minute she saw the job advertised in the International Office in UCC, she knew it was for her! This was what she had been preparing for all her life without knowing it. Assisting students is her passion. She plays a vital role in the Quinnipiac partnership with University College Cork as the on the on-ground Resident Director. Mary becomes their go-to confidant, their adopted Auntie who eases their worries with tea and scones at her kitchen table and helps them navigate life in another country. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, Mary has seen so many changes, some good and some not so good. She is happy to say that she has learned to enjoy life, to slow down, take life a bit easier and not put herself under pressure to do things all the time. You can find Mary on Facebook and maybe she will share her recipe for scones!
