I’m moving to Ireland shortly (25f) + I’m personally going through hell in my personal life. I’ve been getting a lot of sweet messages but also a lot of heavily negative messages about moving to Ireland regarding immigration, regarding how disillusion I am and how lonely it is in Ireland. I’ve heard it’s extremely cliquey.

I don’t have any expectations for someone to be overly nice to me because I am moving to another country, I don’t think I have this novelty because I am American, but I guess my concern is, do you actually feel like it is that hard to make friends or establish connections in Ireland?

I don’t want to come to Ireland and be completely disillusioned. I don’t really have many expectations, but I also know that I’m in a season of life that is extremely difficult and I don’t expect to move to fix any of my problems, but I am concerned of the move exasperating some

Moving to Ireland from America! Super nervous and want to make friends abroad and learn about Ireland before my move!

I’m really into reading, art, painting, I have a few tattoos and piercings, I adore makeup, movies + ima. Big foodie

Hi!!

I’m an American immigrating over to limerick shortly! (27f) I have been over twice at this point only and it has been so completely polarizing each time. I have my fingers crossed that it’s an easy enough transition into moving!

Is there anyone that would be comfortable being friends/ penpals of sorts leading up to the move?

Hi American here moving abroad next month is there any discord or apps that you would suggest to get a Headstart of meeting new people and making new friends?

hi! I am in the process of moving to Waterford for a teaching program. I am interested to see if anyone has ideas or apps to suggest to meet people prior to the move so I won’t alone! it’s been a stressful process.

any tips/tricks /advice for an American moving and acclimating to ireland culture
