  • Galway is the brightest and most intriguing Irish town of the West of #ireland . It marks the halfway point on the Wild Atlantic Way and is the only city on the entire 2500km route. The city is wild and bohemian, and at the same time full of culture, artistry, exceptional food and music. As well as being a popular seaside destination with long sandy beaches,
    Galway is also a thriving and cosmopolitan city centre. It is always a joy to explore with its wonderful cobbled streets, colourful shop facades, and its offbeat café/bar culture. Galway is also well known for its proliferation of festivals and civic events, with huge crowds gathering for the much-celebrated Galway International Arts Festival, the craic of the Galway Races, the spectacular Macnas Halloween Parade and numerous other events throughout the year. Ireland’s great traditions of hospitality have their place in the city too, with turf fires and traditional music featuring in many of the city’s pubs.
    Have a nice day everyone and see you next week! We hope you enjoy watching this one as much as we did making it!
    Cheers! 🍺

    You have to love Galway and all its charm, From our beautiful coastline to our cozy pubs. In my opinion, the west is the best.❤😉
    We had a fun time making this weeks video but my god, the sun is intense the last few weeks ….. my Irish ☘️ brain 🧠 doesn’t function well with too much UV exposure. We’re not built for this weather.😅😅
    Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this weeks video and sure give us an ould Like & subscribe for the craic. 😉 🍻 👍 🫶

    What a lovely video. Thanks so much, guys. I lived in Galway for a year in 2012 and it‘s still my happy place. I think when people outside of Ireland think of ‘Ireland‘, Galway and Connemara come pretty close to their expectations. As for the bus drivers, I remember them being super friendly back in 2012. I took a bus to Lidl once a week to buy my groceries and after a few weeks, the bus driver knew me and would ask about my week and actually help me get the heavy bags off the bus on my way back. Only knowing German bus drivers up to that point, I was amazed and told everyone back home about the friendly bus drivers in Galway. But listening to you guys, maybe I should stop doing that…😅 Thanks for the trip down memory lane, guys! ❤

    The 5 year old extorted one of those icecreams last week which is the first time I've let him loose in Galway city since Christmas 😂 He's figured out where Smyths is now so my current expenditure is house>Smyths>Icrecream going by this week 😢😂

    Good video but paying with cash is better that credit card or any card cause if we have no cash then we will not have control over our money on what we buy and everything that is payed by in credit card is recorded and in the future they can block our bank account if we dont do as they say. Remenber cash is king!!!

    Hi, i like your videos! I'm also planning to move to Ireland with my husband and son 😃 I would like to know something about the renting situation. Is it possible to rent a fully equipped flat, with furniture, kitchen elements etc. or most of the accommodations there are empty and the renter needs to buy everything? Or if its possible is it a big difference in the monthly payment; empty flat vs. equipped flat?

    • @Corrky
      @Corrky  Před rokem +2

      Most of them are fully equipped it’s just very hard to gong accommodation currently.

    • @Spondre

      Irish apartments are generally fully furnished, including crockery and cutlery. Historically, renting a place unfurnished gave the tenant more rights so the place would be furnished to avoid that issue. Currently under the RTB and rent pressure zone rules there would be absolutely no reason to give a tenant a discount for supplying their own furniture. Rents are reasonable compared to other global urban centers but are exorbinant compared to local purchase prices.

      If you're in the position to put a deposit down and buy a cheap house the mortgage would be much cheaper than rent. My mortgage is like 30% of what I was paying in Galway city on rent which is absolute madness I know.

      With 80k population it's a town at best. Dublin is the only actual city in Ireland, imho.

      @@Corrky A definition I have heard is that the smallest possible town is a village that is just large enough to support two lawyers but too small to support one. It becomes a city once there is no longer any farm/pasture land within its boundaries. By these definitions Galway is a town. My property tax papers refer to it as a city, however. I would never argue with Revenue.
