That's awesome! We were seriously thinking about moving until my wife talked to a woman who lives there. Apparently she had an American friend who moved to Ireland and they kept her dogs in quarantine for over a year. We have some older dogs, one of which is a purebred Pomeranian, that wouldn't survive that experience.
We had the same idea. We both retired last year. We lived there for two months prior to retiring. It's great to visit. It's a wonderful place. In the long run, it's not what you are used to. There is a big difference. Health care is one of them.
