Guess I'll jump in first... lol

Visa/Residency process, Civil ID, DL, Bank Account, Accommodation (Shared space shouldn't be too hard to find), a car is advised but getting from area to area through public transportation is not too much of a headache - whats far is all relative to what your used to - lol, 'i' anything is a little pricy in country so bring your devices with you (of course I don't know how expensive electronics are in Ireland). 

If you dig through this site, there should be plenty of info on this subject already covered...

Good Luck, and have fun with your new adventure!  :)

Hello! I hope you have a great fun experience here.

I am a kuwaiti living in mangaf. I work in the city. It is usually half an hour drive if you are planning to drive your own car from mangaf to the city. but, with traffic, you need to get up early say around 6 in the morning you should be out.

The good thing about Mangaf is that there are many malls and cafes you can find,, many °µÍø½ûÇøs too. It is crowded most of the time.
Enjoy your trip.

lol @ territory; was just explaining Kuwait to a new american friend and called them "states" here, I'm guessing you are Canadian :P

What do i need to start there !
whatever u can carry on u from wherever you are coming from :P

Bank account or use an HSBC °µÍø½ûÇø one?
HSBC in Kuwait is corporate only, so u will need a local bank account. choose NBK. abundant ATMs all over.

Do i need a car?? Ill be Mangaf based!
yes. u will need a car.

Sharing accomodation easy to find ??
depends. u will need to check online and try to find a good deal for yourself, hopefully u will find something.

Im an iphone geek 4G or 3G ??
4G?

Is it far from territory to territory ie kuwait city to mangaf?

i see ur Irish, if ur into Gaelic football, let me know when u get here and i'll put u in touch with the Harps, the Kuwait gaelic football team, mostly Irish-men & women :)
