    Ok so I probably should have said, what's the best way to get out of this country and go to America! I really want to go to the US in a year or so and live there for awhile (3 months or so)

    Has anyone got any idea what the best thing to go over there with is, I was thinking something like being a landscape gardener person and making a living out of it over there, but I have no idea.

    but it's not that easy to get a work visa or citizenship or whatever, is it difficult to make a living over?

    A lot depends on your age and if you're a recent graduate. There is a program that allows Irish citizens to obtain a work visa if they've recently graduated from 3rd level. I believe the term is 1 year. Once in and you've made the right contacts you may be able to convert to permanent resident status, but you will need a sponsor. Sponsors are typically companies that guarantee your employment, but they must also prove that no American can do the job that they are hiring you for.

    They only other way is to marry an American citizen, but that process is not so easy either.

    Some of the employment sites offer services to get your visa and secure employment there. Check Irishjobs.ie etc.

    Maybe not the quickest way, but at least you can bring your house ;)

    Once you get out of Ireland, there'll be a Greenland. When you see Greenland, turn left. If you see Russia, you know you've gone too far

    Why do you want to get out of Mongolia?

    Bolt cutters to get past the barbed wire, and damn good camouflage to sneak past the guard towers. Then you'll need a raft made from the wooden bed supports in your bed in the camp.

    A wooden crate with holes drilled in it, and a postage stamp.

    Information evening here in Athlone on Monday for people looking to head to Austrailia. Looking forward to that.

    Edit: If you're looking to leave and want to sort out work first, you might want to try www.ccusa.com. And no I'm not advertising. I'm getting the feck out of here too if I can!

    A tank of Oxygen, dodgy undertaker and ship yourself to america as a corpse.

    Get out whichever way you can. Leave now! Ireland is a police state.

    I personally wouldn't bother with the States as they make you jump through too many hoops. You can go wherever you like in Europe - great options there.
    I don't blame you for wanting out though. Best of luck with it.
