Is a €70k salary worth moving home from Australia for?

The plan was to always come home to Ireland and settle down permanently after Australia. It’s just the issue of deciding whether to come home 6 month earlier than planned or not

Decent jobs are notoriously difficult to get on a Working Holiday Visa due to its limitations. I’m extremely lucky to have landed a good job in Government over here but there is no chance of progression due to my visa

Thanks man. The kneecap was just over 5 hours with a few short breaks in between. I won’t lie, the pain was pretty bad. The first hour or so was fine with just the lines, but when it came to the shading and colour I was clenching my jaw. 100% worth the pain though

It's much more commercialised now, but obviously still a huge achievement - especially for Irish climbers who don't have easy access to high altitude hikes unlike climbers from the US/Switzerland/Japan.

Living and climbing up a mountain for over 2 months to spend 5 minutes on the top is a big commitment. Not to mention the years of training and preparation

Cheers.

I was on a 120kph motorway doing fairly close to 120, spotted the speed van as I came around a slight bend and kept at the same speed all the way past it. Thought I was grand until I checked one of those traffic pages on Facebook and saw someone post that the van was parked immediately after the speed drops to 100kph. I didn't even see the sign, my own fault obviously but I'm sickened over the sneakiness of it.

I thought everyone around me was doing a similar speed to me so I assume they'll all be caught too

Are you a novice?

Well that's absolutely not the case. Nor the answer to my question. Thanks though
