Deciding to move back to Ireland
I have been reading all your threads on here and have founds lots of useful info etc.
I left Ireland when I was quite young and moved to London where I lived for 15 years. Now in Dubai which is a completely different kettle of fish!
I am contemplating my next move and would be interested to hear from any Irish who moved back after a number of years and how you adjusted or from any Brits/Scots who moved over to Ireland (does it compare favourably to living in the UK?).
Because I left when I was young I am really out of touch with a lot of things and hence I am worried about settling back in to a slower pace of life.
I had a look on daft.ie and some of the properties and fantastic and so cheap. Where would you recommend living. I want to be somewhere near a lake or river and rolling hills. My family live in Sligo so I want to be relatively close to them. Carrick on Shannon and other parts of Leitrim look beautiful. Hopefully when I move back I won't need to work so I don't necessarily need to be near a big city.
Thanks for any advice you can give me.

Good luck. I lived in Laois and don't have a lot of knowledge of the West of Ireland but give me a shout if you think I can help in any way.
