Description
Help with childcare and domestic home. We are a very welcoming family and love having foreign speaking travellers stay with us. With previous workaways we would always have a culture night, where they get to showcase their own national cuisine. I buy the ingredients and they cook a dish of their choice.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Travelers will benefit from living within an Irish home learning the Irish culture and the English language. I am a writer and attend writing events which I encourage my guests to attend with me. Travellers will be submerged in the Irish culture and way of life as part of the family. We are very use to having foreign speaking travellers stay with us and we are very flexible and accommodating, whilst expecting travellers to be equally flexible.
