: Patricia - I leave for Ireland next week with
: the intent of starting a new life in
: Leitrim. We have a similar profile. I do
: know that it is very difficult to "get
: a job" there however it is perfectly OK
: to be self-employed. This works for me plus
: I have a tiny pension. Leitrim is very
: affordable - have you looked at www.daft.ie
: for an idea of rents? It is a bit of a
: process relocating but can be done. Everyone
: seems to have different stories about how
: they did it. I suggest you rent for 6 months
: and see how you like it before fully
: committing to buying a home.
: Maybe we will see each other!

: Hello fellow Ireland dreamers, and those
: already there.
: Here's my question; I'm well aware of the
: economy in Ireland, jobs situation etc. I am
: 50ish, single (div'd, kids on their own),
: have lots of 1st cousins in Leitrim, would
: love to go. Is this a workable idea if I
: figure I give myself 2 yrs. worth of savings
: to live on - will have to calculate what
: that is - until I may for sure get myself a
: little job. I'm thinking that as to buying a
: small home, the next year or two would
: actually be a good time. Are there any other
: brave folks out there (over the 20's) who
: did this on their own? Would love to hear
: how it went. Thanks, Patricia
