Descripción
Hi. I've moved back to my old farmhouse in county Kilkenny. I work for an international NGO based here in Ireland and lecture in a Dublin university. I also work in tourism in the summer. I'm biased but if you don't know Kilkenny, this really is a lovely part of Ireland.

I spent much of my adult life working and living abroad and I'm a registered tour guide here in Ireland. I speak some French and Spanish (in an earlier life I taught English).
Ayuda
Eco-building and renovation projects I need help with. I'm hoping you have an interest in organic vegetable gardening. Bonus if you're creative or have some experience with interior design. There's also various other light work I need help with, indoor and outdoor.

It is a comfortable, renovated cottage with log-burning stove. You will have your own bedroom and shared bathroom. I enjoy food and can offer three meals a day - and am happy to try your cuisine!

There are lovely walks and cycling along quiet country roads, with woods nearby and small villages. I'm fortunate to have friendly neighbours too. Nearest village and public transport is fifteen minutes walk, although I'm happy to collect/drop you. The medieval town of Kilkenny is not too far, with the charming village of Abbeyleix in the other direction.

The time passed very quickly, and the work consisted of working in the garden. It was very interesting work and I learnt a lot.
Hugh is someone who has travelled everywhere, so it's very interesting to talk to him.
I had a very good stay
We stayed for about one week at Hugh's and it was so great ! The house is really cosy, next to the fireplace especially, and you have all you need 😁
