Ok guys, so here is the whatsit-howsit.
My best friend an I want a minor adventure before we go and get settled down with bills and husbands and major responsibilities.
I told her of my dream to earn enough money for a one way ticket to Ireland, where I would earn enough money for my way back, or where I would stay forever.
she liked this plan, and decided to go with me. Well, we started plannign and discussing this a few nights ago, and I was wondering if any on you guys had any input?
Of course, so far, we are going to buy 2 way tickets, but the time that were staying is 3 months, and were going to only use bicycles and pretty much rough it, for fun.
Whaddya think?
Do it!
You do not want to wake up 20 years from now and think, gee... I wish I had (insert option forgone here) all those years ago.

PS: suggestions: (These may not be relevant to your particular situation.)
1. If you're not a UK/EU citizen, get in touch with the relevant Embassy/High Commission and ask about work and visa requirements.
2. Also if you're not from UK/EU, you may be required to have a ticket home before entry.
3. Get a touring bike now and start doing doing some day trips and a few over-nighters. This will allow you to figure out some practicalities regarding what and how much you can/need to cart around, as well as help physical preparation.
