Yeah the hate is surprising to me. She was nothing but respectful and kind, yet Irish people are angry at her over her skin color? I’m Canadian and people are respectful and kind towards you if you reciprocate that behavior. I don’t know how the Irish do it though.
It's probably just the right video at the wrong time. As she said, the housing crisis here is chronic. There just isn't enough houses. I'm actually shocked that people still want to come here. She spoke very well, seems very nice and the housing crisis is not her fault, our government should take responsibility and slow down immigration for a while until the housing supply catches up.
@@jojohnson4448 i dont think its a case of the wrong time. The ratio of negative Irish comments in POC videos to that of videos made by white (or white assuming) ppl is alarming. They say they are the most welcoming (and i am sure they are, i actually view Ireland and the Irish from a very positive and admiring standpoint so i'm really talking about the few who act like this), but their reception to POC in comparison to other non-Irish white ppl in these times tell on them. Majority of immigrants now in Ireland, asides the illegals and refugees, are other European ppl yet you would think it was ALL POC with the way they make sure to bear down on their videos (some even using slurs). Its sad. I stand with the Irish on their issues, better and stricter regulations need to be made because you cannot simply substitute locals with undocumented ppl to the point where Ireland can barely provide for the actual Irish. But i do not support the action of these ignorant few.
OH come on. Just because she's a poc doesn't make her impervious from mistakes. You need to go elsewhere if you fear racism. Perhaps you can immigrate to one of these third world countries to help make them a second or first world... what? too hard?
Do they have good ethnic (Black) hair dressers or barbers in Ireland because that’s the only thing I’m worried about I need my hair to be secure first 😂
Dude... you're hotter than he'll. You'll be fine. If you're going to dublin or Galway and want to meet good Irish people. Get a part or full time job in a bar. Inner city. (The nice part) aim for hipstery bars or live music venues. Don't be afraid to tell people to slow down while talking. You'll love it. It's all about the people you spend time with. We are a very hospitable people. If you make friend with irish people. Ask us about our culture. Good luck.
sister these video are lie, theis girl not live in ireland it's terrible here in the moment, the Irish have turned violent against blacks and muslims in some areas since Algeria immigrant stabbed three children, there be no more accommodation and immigrants are sleeping on street in tents since the locals started burning refugee centres, it's a nightmare here, I been here a month and am just trying to find a way out now, I don't feel safe here at all, the government could fall at any time and the far right are about to come to power here, we are all fearful of that, they will kick us all out of the country or maybe worse ,I wish I never heard of Ireland.
But you didn't answer the biggest question of all which is what is it like being a person of color in Ireland. We know it's not that common are they generally friendly or not
Its diverse and for the most part friendly in counties such as Cork, Dublin, Galway, Louth (Citys or near cities only), There is a huge black/poc population and ethnic stores you need in those areas. I would say blatant racism in cities or near cities is uncommon but there can be alot of micro-aggressions. Rural areas I wouldn't recommend to live if you arent white irish. There's alot of blatant racism and not much going on in those areas anyways other than tourism. Generally Ireland is more racially tolerant than alot of countries and its more diverse than you think :) (I lived here my whole life and this is my summary of things) Hope I helped
@@gen6473 that's good to know, I would expect the occasional odd look just out of surprise but I'm happy it's not that bad. I hope those rural areas evolve over time and get more open two different people but it probably takes more exposure for them to get comfortable.
You'll hardly find the truth online, i've lived here since i was 7. From adults throwing eggs at me on my way to school to being attached/jumped by groups of irish kids. Happens quite often, even my dad has been a victim hes over 60. Its better now but trust me you certainly will wont feel like you belong. If you want a western country where being black isn't a daily burden try London/Manchester. Jst speaking from my exp good luck
@@goiufro Im sorry you experienced that. Do you live somewhere rural or with little diversity? I lived in diverse areas since in Ireland since I was 4 (Navan, Dublin, Near Cork city) and never heard of such disgusting incidents to that degree. Ireland needs to do better especially rural areas.
Oh my gosh your little video is so funny with you adding in the images and oh my gosh specially two minutes I was cracking up so much at the rain Forrest Gump or was that saving Private Ryan I live in Minnesota and it’s like pretty much four seasons and even though it’s only 22°F here and that’s it 2:30 in the afternoon I still love the sunny days and the green trees and activity and I don’t know if I could do that much rain
Hi I'm new to your channel I'm half black Irish and Italian never been to Ireland your channel is inspiring.You are very pretty you have beautiful glowing skin
This is so great! I'm obsessed with your gif transitions haha I actually just posted a really similar video talking about the things that I wish I knew before I moved to Ireland about a year and a half ago. I still feel like I'm learning new things every day here!
@Joshua Bakker "A sorely needed dose of sense"? No, you're just a sad, racist, prick.... The vast majority of Irish people do NOT agree with you. The young lady, Ms Mako, is intelligent and has a good soul. Sadly, this cannot be said about you. And before you ask, yes I am Irish. And very proud to be so. Also proud that I live in a country to which positive people like Ms Mako choose to come and contribute to.... You, whether Irish or not, are just a drag on civilisation....
May all migrants, emigrants, immigrants, asylum-seekers, and refugees find peace, safety, mercy, compassion, and happiness in IRELAND, the Isle of the Green Emerald...
Northern Ireland is in Ireland, the Irish Constitution does not recognise a North and South, so when you come to Ireland North, South, East or West, then you are in Ireland.
Hey are you working there? I’m currently still doing my interviews hope I move there. I’m suppose to be in Dublin. How much do you think the salary should be as an international moving there?
Accomodation is shockingly expensive and hard to find. There's a real housing shortage. There's a website called daft ( can't link websites on YT so Google) that has rental and for sale houses if you'd like to browse available accomodation. Schools however are free and generally excellent. Healthcare for under 8s is free. There's also child benefit of €140 per child per month. It's a really lovely place to raise children imho.
@DZ Caecillius "...and that accommodation things scares me"? Believe you me, it scares Irish people too. I was homeless for about four months, emergency accommodation, crashing with family, etc. Seriously NOT nice. Simply put, there is an ongoing housing crisis in Ireland. The 2008 crash caused the construction sector to shrink drastically, our planning laws are a mess, restrictions on height in urban areas are daft, and the Cover-19 pandemic did NOT help either...
@@gloin10 yes totally agree. Our country has become greedy when it comes to accommodation prices. Availablity is now an issue also. Before it was just Dublin now it's everywhere. Temporary accommodation has become very expensive this year. Car hire is outrageous.
it's terrible here in the moment, the Irish have turned violent against blacks and muslims in some areas since Algeria immigrant stabbed three children, there be no more accommodation and immigrants are sleeping on street in tents since the locals started burning refugee centres, it's a nightmare here, I been here a month and am just trying to find a way out now, I don't feel safe here at all, the government could fall at any time and the far right are about to come to power here, we are all fearful of that, they will kick us all out of the country or maybe worse ,I wish I never heard of Ireland.

In Dublin its a International city. You can be any race from any country as long as your not ENGLISH!!! IF YOU WANT THE TRUE IRISH EXPERIENCE GO TO KILLARNEY OR LIMERICK! Or cork.
Really? I guess that’s how you get a green island what about swimming in activities and biking and hiking and outdoors do people still do a lot of those just even when it’s raining ☔️??
@@Timetravel1111 some of us do in the rain. Yes. As for swimming, the best place is the sea. Short time in winter. Longer in Summer. You have to gradually get used to the cold. Very good for your health. Cycle, hillwalking etc with good waterproofs.
@@tekesteabrha3344 Wes there are lots of university’s here in Ireland that do take international students however the cost of education and living is HIGH!! Especially Dublin….. the best option in my opinion for a slightly cheaper prices would be Galway… hope this helps :)
Hello there! Great video! I would like to stay in ireland with my girlfriend and i have some questions! Im dietitian and cook, i would like to work as a cook! My girlfriend is in food science! Is a good choice the Limerick? Could we find there a job?
Lots of work as a cook in Ireland, loads of pubs and restaurants, Limerick is good but accommodation is hard to find in Ireland at the moment, I would recommend Cork it has everything city and beautiful countryside and loads of restaurants and tourists destinations, Kinsale, clonakilty, bantry, Youghal.
@@seanmchugh6136 Thank you very very much for your response and for your guidance!! May I ask you, is the salary in Cork enough only for your expenses or you can also save some money?
To be honest it depends on your personal situation, a couple living in a house share should be able to save, if you are looking to rent a property for yourselves it is very expensive, also if you have children childcare is difficult to find here and also expensive but if you don't have children and are prepared to share a house with another couple or people then you should be OK.
Hi lm from Botswana and I want to move to Ireland I need info about the country where to live ,accommodation jobs, salary and a safe place to live as a foreigner thank you
Wexford is lovely to live in. Just have a good amount of savings. Ireland is very expensive to live in. Landlords are utter bastards too so be careful. Best of luck!
Hi Dorcus , I’m interested too :) so amazing to find another Motswana interested..please search for me on my instagram or Facebook so maybe we can share costs etc I don’t know … talk to me
Don't come brother save you trouble of finding out the hard way like I did it's terrible here in the moment, the Irish have turned violent against blacks and muslims in some areas since Algeria immigrant stabbed three children, there be no more accommodation and immigrants are sleeping on street in tents since the locals started burning refugee centres, it's a nightmare here, I been here a month and am just trying to find a way out now, I don't feel safe here at all, the government could fall at any time and the far right are about to come to power here, we are all fearful of that, they will kick us all out of the country or maybe worse ,I wish I never heard of Ireland.
Hey Deola.I think your observation on the weather in Ireland is a bit inaccurate to be fair yes it rains a lot compared to Africa but it’s not all bad kinda depends where you are in Ireland and the time of year also there’s good points to the weather here too like it’s never extreme like in temperatures and it does not rain very much in the summer months I should know because I’m a farmer in the south east part of Ireland so I’m out in the weather ever day but I also think the weather is getting better here compared to years ago because of climate change.have to say as well that you are an extremely attractive and beautiful looking woman.
She liar, she not even in Ireland Ireland has changed fast since terrorist attack on children in dublin it's terrible here in the moment, the Irish have turned violent against blacks and muslims in some areas since Algeria immigrant stabbed three children, there be no more accommodation and immigrants are sleeping on street in tents since the locals started burning refugee centres, it's a nightmare here, I been here a month and am just trying to find a way out now, I don't feel safe here at all, the government could fall at any time and the far right are about to come to power here, we are all fearful of that, they will kick us all out of the country or maybe worse ,I wish I never heard of Ireland.
@@ConsciousDecision-bk4knsorry you’re having such a bad experience. I do live here. I clearly have other videos showing that. You also don’t need to call me a b****
@@AddySweet Thank you for you reply. And what's the probability of finding a job in another country with an Irish masters diploma? I honestly do not want to stay in Ireland, the place is full. The accommodation situation is very depressing.
@@Fuiape Although Irish certificates are recognized internationally, it depends on your field of study. If you studied business, logistics, management and hospitality courses it will be hard to get a job In mainland EU without experience because they will take people with diplomas from schengen countries first. In mainland EU most of the jobs with such fields need you to master the langauge, few companies don't. The employer will also hire someone already studying or studied in the schengen zone because it will be less paperwork to bring him to another EU country for interview or trials. No visa needed in the free movement zone. You can just move to the next EU country and apply for residence direct. It is not possible with even IRP stamp 4. Students with residence permits or student visas in schengen zone go to other EU countries to work on semester breaks. For Canada, USA, UK, Australia and New Zealand which have similar education system to Ireland, it will also depend on your field and demands there. Health, I.T, Nurse, Medical fields, it is abit easy because the demand is high everywhere for those fields. For other fields it will depend on what you studied. Some students here go to the above countries for Phd or PG and then addup with their Irish diplomas. While you are in that country its easier than waiting for work visa here.
@@AddySweet wow thank you so much! That was a thorough reply and very useful! Thank you!! Well, I just won an scholarship to study a master in Ireland. I’m a musician - specifically I am a songwriter, producer and arranger. I’m from Latin America which means I’m basically restricted to stay in Ireland since the visa doesn’t allow me to move around the Schengen countries. This is a big opportunity to me, but in my field what counts is consistency, discipline,focus and networking. I choose to apply because of the networking opportunities. But honestly I am not excited after I learned about the issues with accommodation over there. I am hoping that if I choose to go at least I will be able to work remotely from Latin America. This is a huge opportunity from a boy from a third world country but I’m questioning if it’s really worth it since I have this feeling that Ireland is a country that is already overcrowded. I will not be pursuing Phd I just want to work,make my money get to use my career practically. Aka hands on. There’s not worth at least for me to study forever.
@@Fuiape Since it's a scholarship, it's not a bad deal if only you have enough money for rent and expenses here. 80% of the jobs are in Dublin. You can give it a try but make sure you have plan B on the left hand incase of anything You can work remotely but will be taxed by 2 countries. If you from one of the southern American countries with visa free to EU, you can use that as advantage to explore and have a plan B there. With your field I would have suggested USA or Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Portugal or Spain in this order. Only Dublin is crowded. Dublin looks like a big town in UK and Cork, Limerick sub- towns. The rest of Ireland is rural. Example Brazil is advanced and modern than here. The main problem here is it's very expensive(second after Switzerland) but salaries here are low. Bad transportation system (car is essential and expensive insurance €2000+, difficulty to get jobs, hard to find apartment even in villages , low standard of living, not western style environment, not developed compared to western countries or even some eastern like Poland, Slovenia or Czech Republic. It all depends on you.
No, it rains 12 months of the year in Ireland. Looking out my window at the cold, driving rain and it's officially the height of summer here... The rest of the week, up to next Wednesday, is forecast to be worse....
Am from Nigeria I will like to move to Ireland with my family, is there any information I will like to know before doing that, I really love Ireland and it’s my dream country
Driving can be different people with heavy accent if you can’t understand just listen carefully Kerry is always a nice place the music food is great watch out for the Connor pass dingle has great site see

@@KevinKaffy I live in Northern Ireland I think I wud know. It is a country in the UK... its not even up for debate😂😂 there is a border in case u forgot
@@KevinKaffy are you dense‽ it's detached in the drawing to show its borders more clearly and to highlight it. It's not necessarily actually detached. Like what!!
