International dialogue and sharing student experiences can help develop empathy and cultural understanding. This article shares the cross-cultural experience of American doctoral students and recent adult education alumni from Ireland. We examined how the opportunity for international dialogue became an example of transformative and intercultural learning. Through technology, learners engaged to gain a deeper understanding of each other’s personal narrative. The students also recognized how the educational systems in each nation has impacted their learning journeys.
