So one of the great things about moving to Ireland was that I didn’t have to worry about a language barrier. Sure, I was moving to a different country with no job lined up and no living arrangements made, but hey! At least I wouldn’t have to worry about everyone speaking in a different LANGUAGE too, right?!
WRONG. Irish and American English sometimes feel like they’re 2 different languages.

Holy cow.
I have been dying, and I mean DYING, to finally share my big news! I have been looking into the Irish Working Holiday Authorization for months now. I’ve been preparing all the necessary paperwork, filling out the application, gathering documents, etc. I finally submitted my visa application to the Irish Consulate Embassy in Chicago a few weeks ago. Since then, I’ve been waiting patiently to hear back from them, since it usually takes about 3 weeks.
Well, I got my approval email this week, so I’m finally approved for the visa which means I’M MOVING TO IRELAND FOR A YEAR, YA’LL!
