Hello! I am Lindsay McCabe. My husband Kevin is an Irish citizen (via foreign births registry) and we have two children: Anna (11) and Aidan (9). We plan to move to Ireland mid-2021 or sooner from Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Kevin has been looking for employment in Ireland and we are hoping that it will be an easier process since he won't need a work visa. (He's been working for UPS for 18 years...industrial engineering/logistics/project management, if anyone know of opportunities!) We've never even visited Ireland, and we plan to move without ever having visited...a leap of faith...an adventure! The kids are excited, as are we! We've learned so much on this site and are looking forward to learning even more and getting involved with the forums. The question I have for those of you who have already done this: what is one thing you wish you'd known before you made the move?

"How is life in the UK?" Depends what your expectations are? Personally I'm glad its behind me but then I'm born and bred country and an Industrial dinosaur as a heavy engineer (mechanical). The remaining family over there range from white van girl, WAste recycling, health service, education and Chris's lad is high tec web design and development. As the old story if your happy in your work your pretty happy anywhere. Other points depend on just where in the UK? Best of luck with the interview.
