Hi Lola3,
I live near Shannon airport, so if you have any questions, feel free to pm me.
I hope you have a nice time while based in ireland- dont forget your umbrella.
Firstly, Shannon isn't much of a town in that there is very little to do or see in Shannon. Therefore, a lot of crew wouldn't choose to live in Shannon but would go for the nearby town of Ennis, or the city of Limerick. Both Ennis and Limerick are within 30 minutes drive of Shannon airport. Will you have a car while staying in Ireland?
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me
