OK, the first thing you have to learn about my wonderful home country is that when you ask this question people will only answer with where they are from or where they now live..... people in Ireland are biased.... I know I've lived here all my life...... they are also very different all over.
My advice is to take a month or more if possible and travel around, once you hit 2 - 3 couties in the North, South, East and West you'll get a good view.... hit the 4 provences and pick a few counties of each. The reason I give this advice is that, I'm Irish and I'm still surprised at how some Irish people are, I don't knwo how many times I've felt like I'm in a different country when on holidays here even if I'm only 50 miles away from home!!!
Good Luck and have fun!!! ;-)

Everywhere is good to live in Ireland - though almost everywhere is expensive.

If you are not an EU citizen you will need a work visa. It's easiest to get your employer to get this before you come.

When here, remember the two parts of the island are Northern Ireland and Ireland (sometimes called the Republic of Ireland) - there is NO country called Southern Ireland. Do not call the country 'Ãire' unless you are speaking the Irish language.

My friend and I went there and rented a car to explore Ireland on our own. It would really depend on what you like when you get there. We are both city people but driving on the wrong side of the road in tremendous traffic and construction in Dublin was NOT fun. Galway city was very, very crowded and the roads were hard to navigate. We ended up staying in small towns and just really enjoying the traditional Irish life. I would reccommend visiting before you decide to move there. The very best things we did were seeing the Blarney Castle, the cliffs of Moher, driving the ring of Kerry and staying with certain awesome Irish people at the B&Bs. If you fly into Shannon, you must stay at Tara Green B&B. Also, make sure to try KP Hula Hoops (crisps/chips), Cadbury Flake (chocolate candy bars) and Bulmer's Cider (beer).

I lived in Northern Ireland for 3 years, don't be put off by news footage the area around Antrim and Belfast has vast history and sights to see, it is a difficult place but there are places to see that are most excellent.

West Cork, during the summer. Cape Clear Island if you want to get away from the city. Dublin if you want a good night out. Galway for the traditional irish way of life.

Dublin and Galway are brilliant places to visit, I have a friend who lives in Dublin and she of course loves it as there is so much to so and see and you never have time to be bored, I also love Galway too, lovely people and lots to see and do, everyone is so friendly and welcoming in Ireland no matter where you go.

Co Donegal really is the prettiest place in Ireland. Everytime I go, about twice a year, I'm always so happy that we don't stay in the cities. Galway is the nicest city, Dublin is gross, but really get out into the country.

hi. depends on what your looking for. if you like nightlife and partying i suggest dublin or galway city. galway city is more laid back.
donegal where i live is nice , quiet but it is good nighlife particularly in letterkenny. and it is not too far away from derry city where shopping is great. the scenery here is qorgeous too if your into that. google all the places and go with your instinct. it will lead you to your place in ireland.
