My g/f has recently moved to Dublin with work, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to bite the bullet and move over there too.
I know a few people on here live in Ireland, so I'm looking for some general pointers about moving over there.
I'll be working freelance, which I've already started, so that's more or less sorted (I just need to look into tax issues etc.), so I'm looking for stuff like:
- decent areas of Dublin to live in, places with reasonable-ish rents (g/f is working in Dun Laoghaire, so near there would be a bonus, but I know it ain't cheap round there and it's not absolutely essential)
- which suppliers are good for broadband/phone etc. (a decent and reliable bb connection is vital because I'll need it for work)
- any other useful moving-to-Dublin type info and any local knowledge as regards good points, bad points etc.
I don't know Dublin particularly well (I spent a week in Dun Laoghaire myself with work a few years back), and I've been there the odd day or two since my folks live in Co. Down, so any tips or info gratefully received!
Cheers
