Description
Hello! We're a young family that run a surf school and shop in the beautiful Northwest of Ireland.
We're currently restoring an old building, so we're on the look out for folks keen to help us with our project. We're looking for people with skills in gardening, cleaning & maintenance to lend a hand.
We've an amazing setup here for surfing and an active lifestyle so if that's something you're into we can certainly help you learn to surf and enjoy the amazing location we live in. We have a private caravan in the garden available for your accommodation, and would be open to either a couple or individual. We'll provide everything you need but we're ideally looking for folks who have lived away from home before and are happy to be independent and cook for themselves.
This is not a business position. The help we're looking for is separate to our surf school. The epic part for anyone coming to stay with us is that they can use the surf school for fun in their free time, it’s a perk of staying with us!
Our staff are highly trained and competent in their work and we’re not looking to expand the team via Workaway.
