Porn, grease and mouse droppings - moving into a Dublin house after life in an American college dorm (IrishCentral)

I am a youngin’, fresh out of a college that provided housing for all four years, so this is my first time signing a lease, having a landlord, and being responsible for setting up all the systems I have always taken for granted. I know that moving is a serious pain for everyone, but I can’t help but wonder: is it this hard because I’m a first-timer, or particularly because it’s Ireland? It has to be a bit of both.
