Some of the posters have only lived for a year or less in Ireland and I really don't think you can judge in such a short timeframe. I lived in Belgium for five years and hated it for a year or so, but once I got over the initial culture shock, I didn't want to leave. So read things with a grain of salt. I feel that I am not completely positive or negative, but have highlighted the pros and cons of living here. I would definitely recommend coming to the West of Ireland if you plan on moving out here. The pace of life is incredible, the standard of living much higher than Dublin, cost of living much lower and the people so incredibly friendly and welcoming, not to mention the sheer beauty of the area. - Aug 2006
