    Rent is a nightmare in all Cities in Ireland, UK, Europe and US.

    Great video! Could you make a video on what kind of job opportunities exist in the other cities? Thank you for your good work :)

      Thank you! Unless the Statistics Office has some data on jobs by county/city that would be difficult information to find out, other than going on job sites and searching by county/city. If we do find enough info, we'll make a video on it, thanks.

    As an Irish person I am easily able to say the cost of living in this country is a disgrace compared to the majority of wages. Taxation takes almost half of your wages before you even start to think about the expenses excellently outlined in this video.

    Sadly I have no special skills. I'm not a tech person, not in the medical field. I'm simply a Hospitality major with years of teaching a language. I hope I can move to Ireland one day.

      Hope that you get to fulfil that dream too. We just happened to study these in-demand skills. Most of all we tried to prepare ourselves to be able to work internationally. There's no simple advice, but most persons I know got involved in something different (e.g. environmental causes outreach) and now they've done a degree in it and living in US for a few years. You can sometimes never tell where your interests could take you. Good luck!

    How are costs there recently? I hear utilities have gone through the roof.

  • @Tony_Kidvaski
    @Tony_Kidvaski 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    And of course your living costs are just the basics. You have to buy food, clothing, possibly insurance, entertainment (I mean why work for misery?), Everyday expenses like lunch. The salaries need to rise by at least 1000 euro per month in Ireland to make it worthwhile. Also Ireland has a very corrupt government.

    Belfast is also one to consider. Rent is much cheaper.

    • @WineAndRum
      @WineAndRum  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      We should have put it on the list since it is a place one could commute to. We figure non-EU persons would need permission to work across the border, but would the same apply to EU citizens. Need to research that.
      One of our biggest regrets is that, before this pandemic started we put off visiting the Belfast thinking we could always go whenever we wanted.

    Coming from Australia I thought Sydney rents were expensive but nothing like Dublin(when you convert the currencies)..how can anyone afford to live there...I was hoping to go over for a year..maybe not ...great vid thanks...

    • @WineAndRum
      @WineAndRum  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It definitely is pretty expensive to just be here for a year unless you've got the money to burn. For most of us in certain industries the salaries allow it. But we know most people aren't on a tech salary, we're trying to look for how it is possible to put in more of our videos.

      and we mention some jobs sites in this blog - wineandrum.com/guide-to-expat-living-in-ireland/
      It's definitely more difficult to just get up and go as a non-EU national.

    • @WineAndRum
      @WineAndRum  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We haven't been to Killarney yet, but we've seen this new site start advertising - Westernjobs.ie. If it comes to grow it could be a useful tool in looking for jobs in the west of Ireland.
      We've found that once a place is in one of the major cities of the area, it's still a bit pricey in comparison. According to the latest reports it could be around 1000 for a 1 bedroom and around mid1000s from there out.
      Best option may be to enquire into a Facebook group or someone that lives around there for more info or hidden gems.

      @WineAndRum  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We haven't yet been to Mayo, we can say it does look gorgeous from all the photos and videos of it. Woodlands and beautiful riverside walks are what we imagine. Most places outside Dublin just feel like a different pace of life.

    • @WineAndRum
      @WineAndRum  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If we had the choice, would love to take a couple months off work and just travel the whole of Ireland to see all of the natural scenery here.

    • @thedarquibus
      @thedarquibus 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I was born and raised on Dublin, went to uni there I would not recomend anyone live there if they had a choice. I live in Gorey, Wexford alot of people in this town an many other live outside Dublin but travel there daily to work.

    • @AngelaPeccos
      @AngelaPeccos 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      a big city in mayo to have a look at is Westport, right on the coast. in general county mayo is rural, but there are towns that have a higher population so it's fairly easy to access to get groceries. my husband's family are from Irishtown village in co mayo, and they get groceries in Claremorris. he also has family in Castlebar co mayo, as well as Dublin 6, co Dublin.

  • @captainplanet1260
    @captainplanet1260 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It wont be cheapest for long if you promulgate it because price relies upon demand. Higher demand = higher rent. When you come to our country...try your best not to fk the place up by inviting everyone else here

    • @WineAndRum
      @WineAndRum  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I hear you. Culturally, when you love a place you want people to come and experience it. We'd invite anyone to visit/live in Austria/Barbados (if you can afford it). But supply/infrastructure hasn't kept up with the demand. So yeah, demand is raising prices.
      This video is 3 years old made in the height of the pandemic. At that time, our friends Irish and non-Irish were wondering where to go to escape the rising rents. This video helped some of them find a better place to live, so no regrets there.
