going to Dublin, Ireland next semester for studies
anything I should know / do? advice?
cheap places I could stay for the semester?
Don't expect that kind of weather (for more than 2 days) or that kind of clothing. Well, except on Saturday evening, for some reason. Beer's hilariously expensive.
Where will you be studying? Trinity?
The Luas is (are?) useful, regular, and sufficiently cheap. Definitely look at suburbs close to a line if your courses will be in the centre. They were working along St. Stephens Green last I was there, so that line might still be closed.

Yeah, the weather is similar at home (I'm originally from Brittany, France)
Nope, UCD apparently.
Sad story about beer :/
Will look at all that, thanks for the info!

All irish uni's have on campus accommodation just search "UCD on campus accommodation" there will be plenty of Erasmus students there i'd imagine.
Join the foreign students club they go on tours for cheap and you will meet people in the same situation as yourself
Travel around, Dublin is ok but Galway/Cork is better and more """Irish"""
Everything is expensive so have money

Not really, Dublin is a cunt for accomodation, UCD student housing is your best bet
What are you studying anon?

Thought about doing that but will get around to it, thanks! ;)
Don't know much about the region yet but I'll look it up to eventually travel around a bit.

Yeah, that's what I heard :/
Buty since I'm staying only a semester I don't know if they'll allow me to ask for a sutdent housing, I'll still try though.
Stugying English language, civ and lit to become a teacher.

I chose Ireland but not the university or city though, we only had that choice.
I'll try to travel around a bit though and to make the most of my stay.
