Tá a fhios agam anois cén fáth go raibh tú chomh díograiseach teacht anseo.”En: Cillian didn't speak but listened with a big smile, as Aoife sighed, “You’re a legend! Now I understand why you were so eager to come here.”Ga: Ag an deireadh, thuig Cillian gur thaitin na botúin chomh mór le rannpháirtíocht dhóiseanna greann.En: In the end, Cillian understood that mistakes were as enjoyable as participating in doses of humor.Ga: Bhí seasmhacht aige sa stoirmeach seaicéad, agus ar ndóigh, rud éigin a d’fhág scéal nua eachtrúil le roinnt.En: He remained steadfast in the stormy jacket, and of course, with something that left a new adventurous story to share.Ga: Mar sin, chonaic sé a thuras ní hamháin mar eachtra, ach mar uirlis lena chur suas an ghreann.En: Therefore, he saw his journey not only as an adventure but as a tool to cheer up the humor.
