    Lots of apartments in the IFSC. Start there.

    Do you play hurling and football? The nearest club that play both would be Clanna Gael http://www.clannagaelfontenoy.ie/, which is about a mile from the IFSC.

    The civil service play out of the phoenix park but dont play football. Theyre players would nearly be all from outside Dublin aswell and are open to any players

    Yeah there are but they're expensive as well and I'm assuming that as an intern you won't be exactly loaded right?
    Just use www.daft.ie. It's the best site for accomodation. You'll easily find something within walking distance of the IFSC that's reasonably enough priced.

    well im more of a footballer but id throw my hand at the hurling!

    i suppose the cheaper the better but i would like to be fairly central. i know i can have things both ways!

    id like to hear from anyone who has actually gone through the whole intern process and tell me about their experiences??????
