    I’m 26 and I’m leaving Dublin after 4 years to move back to Galway (I’m from Mayo, and went to college in Galway). Has anyone else made a similar move recently? How did you adjust? Dublin sucked the life out of me and I can’t wait to get back to a less expensive, more chilled out life.

    Not sure re less expensive if you are renting?!
    Good time to be moving back , Galway is generally great in your 20s, plenty of work these days, excellent social life and plenty of clubs/things to do or join. Cost of renting//housing is steep and driving is a pain and it rains 100 days more often than Dublin .
    Can be very relaxed alright - I found it hard to adjust moving back from overseas a few years ago due to the lack of buildings/skyscrapers , no Tubes, and sometimes frustratingly slow pace of things! But you get used to it .
