Dublin vs Berlin
I will be studying abroad Spring 2027 (mid January-early May), and am having a really hard time picking between my top two programs. I am between IFSA University College Dublin and IES Berlin. For context, I am a Social Studies education major and only speak English, but I have been abroad a lot! I have family from both Berlin and Ireland, and my sister lives in England. I love nature, hiking, history, architecture, meeting new people, and want to be able to easily explore other countries during my time there. I do enjoy going out, but I’m not one to get drunk. Below I’m including some details about my programs, and I would love to hear about experiences or recommendations based on what I’ve provided!!
Dublin:
-housing included in cost
-classes directly through the university
-12.5 to 15 credit hours
-lots more class availability
-excursions available at no extra cost
Berlin:
-housing included in cost
-classes through abroad center
-15 to 19 credit hours
-excursions available at an additional cost
-still good class flexibility
Thank you all so much and if there’s any questions that could help please let me know!

Discussion Do you see any Irish Reg Playes where you are?
I saw a car pass me with a Meath plate today and it got me recollecting on how many Irish Reg cars I’ve seen in my 9 years in Germany.

My Italian Digital Nomad Visa Web App
I'm in the process of applying for my visa to move to Italy from Ireland, and I've built a web app tool to help me manage the process and deadlines for the Italian Embassy in Dublin.
I'm not a business, and I'm not selling anything. I'd just like to share what I've been working on, get some feedback from the community and try to help others out who are going through a similar situation.
If you'd like to check it out
https://italian-visa-tool.netlify.app/
Currently, it only works for the digital nomad visa from Ireland to Italy, but I enjoyed building it so much that I might create it for other Visa applications if people like it.
Anyway, thanks for reading my post.

Irish bars in Paris ???
Hi guys!
I’m a fashion graduate 25F currently living in Ireland. I’ve been applying for jobs however I’m finding it difficult to get anything since I’m not already living in Paris … I was wondering is there anyone who knows of an Irish bar that is hiring or would look for Irish staff ?
I’ve worked in a bar before and I do enjoy this type of work whilst I land on my feet. I’m sociable and outgoing … my French isn’t great but I mean surely I can sweep up the 6 years of French I studied in school….lol
If anyone has any leads or would be open to sharing a contact or two I would be so grateful….
Sincerely, an unemployed girl going insane 🙏🏻

Looking to speak to Irish Eurovision fans living abroad.
I'm a PhD student writing about how the use of myth, folklore and stereotype in Eurovision impacts ideas of national identity - looking specifically at Ireland and Portugal from 1969 - 1996.
In order to do this, I'm looking to complete interviews with Irish Eurovision fans about their recollections of Ireland’s cultural, social and economic transformation in the 1990s, particularly in relation to Ireland’s successes at the Eurovision Song Contest and Riverdance. These personal testimonies will offer a unique insight into this period of history and I'd love for Redditors to participate in an oral history interview with me.
Looking for Irish participants with a living memory the 1990s (or earlier) who have something to say about Eurovision. Of course, looking for as diverse a range of participants as possible. Extra douze points for you if you lived in or around Millstreet in 1993.
My research project has been subject to my university's Research Ethics Committee and has been approved. All participants will be given participation sheets, consent forms and recording agreements before any interviews go ahead. The University will be processing the personal data within your interview and transcripts/summaries thereof as part of the performance of a task carried out in the public interest in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR May 2018).
