We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in Ireland. They wrote...

"I love that kids stay innocent longer here. The kids just play and run around and there isn't the same fears associated with it as there would have been in my home town in Canada. People are very friendly and inviting and go to great lengths to help you out once they know you. We've been warmly included in many traditions and celebrations here. We also love the history and have spent a lot of time exploring the country learning as much as we can. It's a gorgeous place to live, especially when sunny," remarked another expat in South County Dublin, Ireland.

"Irish people are friendly enough after they get to know you. Food was relatively cheap and higher quality in some cases than in US. I lived in a 54 individual house development for retired (65) or disabled people less than 65 could also qualify. I was one of the first ones to rent in there," said a member in Enniscorthy, Ireland.
