    Go to Coppers where you'll find plenty of Irish women singing Despacito.

    Haha that’s actually where I live.

    But anyway, lurk around the University when you arrive, that’s where they’re alll hiding.

    Aye! I miss Galway. Is Cuba still there? The GPO?

    Why Irish? Why not go to Spain, pick one up there, take her to Ireland? Still EU.

    Pick me up one too, while you're at it...

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Do you want to live in Ireland with a Spanish girl or live in Ireland with an Irish girl that speaks Spanish?

    You keep saying you want a Latina Irish girl, that's not really a thing.

    Much like OP isn't really an Australian, living in the US I'd hazard a guess. It's not funny, or interesting or bashing one of the AH favourites, so they'll need to review their strategy on their next rereg.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    My dream of a Spanish speaking Irish Latina seems less certain after all this input.
    There are lots of Latinas/os and Spanish in Ireland. There are face book groups for "Españoles en dublin/[city of choice]" etc. which might point the ways of finding people (events, numbers of people in certain areas etc.). Many latinos/as also tend to gather at latino music nights/follow on Facebook.
    There is no identifiable group of Spanish speaking Irish girls - either girls who have an interest in the language/learnt it in school/college or have a parent/parents from a Spanish/Latino background.
    Best bet would be finding one of the groups ("[Group] in [City]")- and you are likely to bump into such people looking to improve Spanish/connect with culture/just have fun.

    Hang around playgrounds in more affluent areas during the day, you'll find plenty of Spanish aupairs to woo. They love a man of mystery with a keen eye, so wear a trenchcoat and bring a camera to take pictures.

    Go for a Spanish girl from the north of Spain, some of them you could pass off as Irish. Then take her on a sliabh luachra tour taking in villages like scartaglin, cordal, brosna, knocknagoshel and of course to finish It off the great town of castleisland. She won't be long picking up the accent then.

    There's this girl in Barrystown called Georgina Curley, her father was a Spanish sailor, so I can only assume that her Spanish is top notch.
    I've even got a documentary available that covers their family history!

    Try Christmas Eve, in the drunk tank.

    No tenemos las chicas latinas aqui en Irlanda pero hay las irlandesa que hablan espanol.

    No Latinx women here at least very very very few. Ireland is just a little too far from Latin America

    It's all good guys. I think I'm gonna head back to Galway for just before NYE and see who randomly invites me into a house party (has happened every time I've been there!) and maybe just get lucky and meet an Spanish speaking Irish lass who wants US/Australian citizenship and a mighty good shag.

    Then, on to Morocco for NYE!

    I mean, mainly I want to be Irish. A Latina Irish girl would be ideal, because I like Latinas, spicy as they are, and she could teach me Spanish. But, Latinas will always be out there and I can learn Spanish in other ways.

    Gracias mi amigo! A good tip!

    Also to that lass who mentioned Kilkenny, I've never been, would ye recommend it?

    I don't know why people doubt I'm Australian. Would uploading a scan of my greencard and blurring out my name/photo/id number where it shows my nationality convince you?
