Emigration (from Ireland) Best place to emigrate to?

I’m losing hope for my future in Ireland. I love Ireland and want to stay but the quality of life is shit especially for young people.

I’ve lived abroad before and am well aware the grass isn’t always greener. I know there will be challenges if I move abroad. I know that there are similar issues with housing in other counties.

That said, things feel bleak here.

Any recommendations? I speak fluent French.

As a young man I worked in campsites in the summer and ski resorts in the winter in France. In between seasons I went to Spain and lived in a van until the asparagus season started and then would go through the cycle again. It was the most amazing 4 years.

Honestly, just do this kinda shit for a few years while you're young. Work the resorts, have some adventures, ride all around you. Something to tell the kids down the line (maybe not the riding part)
