We are considering moving with our young sons to Caldas de Reinha, where we've bought a house. We have no mortgage/loans to pay, so how much would we need to get by every month(roughly)? We are far from extravagant.
Secondly, how easy is it to get our sons, aged 3 and 5, onto school waiting lists and how long will it take them to adjust to the new school monolingual environment?I am Indian, my husband is Irish and we live in the UAE, so they are used to being moved around.

Can anyone recommend me a gym in Abu Dhabi? I'm here for 3 months (at the moment) and a lot of places seem to only do annual contracts. Golds in Wadha Mall wanted 200aed a day to train. I'm used to a bodybuilding gym in the Uk so would like to find something similar here (like Golds but maybe not 1000aed a week!) Somebody recommended Rak Gym to me on airport road, close to wadha mall but I haven't had chance to go yet.. Thanks in advance

Destination: Ireland
I'll be moving to work in Loughlinstown in the next few months. I do not know the area, and was hoping for some help on where to rent once I arrive. A bit of information about me, I'm single and early 30s and would prefer to be within walking/cycle distance of where I'd be working rather than have the added hassle of buying a car etc. I would imagine I would also be heading into the centre of Dublin a lot due to friends I know living in Dublin 2 and 4, so an easy/fast route would also be necessary. Any help would be brillint, thanks.
