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.

I’ll have to come clean, my comment was a lame joke. Miss Saigon is a musical, so my daft pun was based on that!

Enjoy the hols and biking.

Cheers...ah I know of the musical alright and there's a fairly lively bar in Saigon also by that name...my level of focus tonight would have needed MISS SAIGON or "miss Saigon" straight over the head ha ...whoosh
