I am looking to move to Dublin to get a fresh start but is it worth it with the high cost of rent and sustainable living such as eating out, bills, travel etc.

At this time I am living in Waterford and rent is very good, I am currently paying €225 a month in a shared 3 bed house with 1 other person who also pays €225 a month. In total 450 for this house is amazing and eating out is relatively cheap. Is it worth my while moving?

I have been accepted to a college course and will receive back to education allowance which is in the area of €188. I would be willing to pay rent of a maximum €90 weekly, €100 at a stretch. Is this possible and if so where and what areas would be best?

Has anyone been in my position before and offer some advice, tips and/or help
