  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We live close to the Northern Irish border and you will get an insight into the realities of border life and how it has affected its communities. There is a strong culture of traditional music in the area and The Corn Mill community Theatre is in Carrigallen and it is the smallest community to have won the All Ireland drama finals...three times!!
  Becky is involved with a small community project with big ideas and a big heart called Margaret's cottage.
  Margaret was a young child that left Ireland's shores and became the beloved Margaret of New Orleans. We endeavour to walk in Margarets footsteps and provide a welcoming, cultural experience in our small community. We have recently bought a property in Carrigallen that is for a community space with the emphasis on integration. There's a small number of Ukrainian evacuees still resident in Carrigallen and we wish to involve all nationalities, backgrounds and cultures.
  Becky is also involved in the Old Dutch Barge sailing experience with Hilary and Brian which is a barge for well-being. Heading off in May this year for Scotland to raise funds for Inspire well-being trust.

  You will be staying in Becky's family home with her grown son. It is a warm, tranquil space with own bedroom in a two-storey house. There's hot water solar panels so always plenty for hot showers and bath after a days activities.

  Was noch ...

  Becky is a care worker in nearby hospitals three days per week. I travel to the Atlantic coast and the Midlands nearly every week so seeing other parts of the country from our base is easy. Chris is a full-time small farmer and is often on trips with his boys. Anja is retired and looking to build her eco home, along with Bob and Luca. You'll definitely get to see different festivals and County Clare with Bob! We like to live a sustainable lifestyle as possible and succeed and fail in equal measures!
  The outdoors is important to us and canoe trips on the waterways of the Northwest are a must as Becky is a member of Cavan Canoe club and the sailing is on the beautiful Lough Erne. There are many miles of country lanes to cycle and explore and an electric bike is available for use. There are local bus links from Carrigallen daily to different towns and the nearest train is in Dromod, 30kms away.
