The Irish Climate

One of the most important things to keep in mind before moving to Ireland is the weather. We recommend that you pack heavy clothing depending on the season and length of your visit. Because Ireland’s weather is typically cold. Rain falls throughout the year. Furthermore, the weather can change numerous times throughout the day. The weather, which is rainy in the morning, can turn sunny and cool in the afternoon and evening. That is why, as the weather heats up, you can bring cardigans that you can carry in your hand.

Sunny weather in the morning can quickly transform to cloudy and wet weather, while rainy weather can quickly turn to sunny weather. That is why clothing in layers is advantageous. Ireland’s nature is green for a long period since it rains in all four seasons. Especially in Autumn and Spring, you will witness very beautiful landscapes.

Shopping in Ireland

Shopping in Ireland is a lot of fun. There are stores or markets with very reasonable costs for everything you are looking for. Penneys, for example, is the cheapest location to purchase for apparel in Ireland. The Irish frequently shop here. You can get pretty good goods at very low prices. If you are planning to buy groceries in Ireland, the cheapest grocery stores are Lidl, Aldi, and Tesco. In these supermarkets, you can find practically anything you need.

You can get a work permit by ‘’work and study program’’ or postgraduate study in Ireland. The jobs that students work for are usually in the service industry. A part-time employment permit of 20 hours per week is available. The hourly minimum salary is 11.30 Euros.
