    Hey, I just watched your TH-cam video about your time and Ireland and saw you mention something about Facebook groups that people could join to get ahead of the game. I was wondering if you still know the names of the group chats because I didn't see them listed in your TH-cam video description.

    A beautiful country but unfortunately full of bigots... a shame..my friend from Spain was told to “ go back to her country” , like there are no Irish in Spain or in other countries? People have to understand that Ireland is fucked now and not because of the foreigners and they won’t recover from everything that’s happening right now, they’ve had the longest lockdowns in the in Europe if not the world. A lot of people went back home, and I don’t think the Irish will do the jobs that the foreigners were doing.

    I drove by it on my way to Zuljana. That wall is amazing. It's so long and goes straight up the steep hill. It seems the fort covered both sides of the peninsula. Perhaps it was used to receive cargo from ships.

    • @themindfulmermaid9809
      @themindfulmermaid9809 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes you should be able to/ You can also ask in the "americans living in ireland" facebook group to double check. I would assume that if it is within the first 90 days (since that's how long you have to register) you should be fine. To be extra safe, call the GNIB office.

    • @themindfulmermaid9809

      You just need 3 references listed in general, not letters. But you should definitely double check with your local Irish embassy just to double check and confirm that the rules have not changed :).
