Vom Host für Workawayer (Ignas)
Ignas is a great lad. An interesting chap with plenty of knowledge on a wide array of subjects. He can be engaging to talk with but might need a little push from time to time. We got on well, got plenty of jobs done. Ignas is a great worker, knows what he is doing in general. Getting the dog fence back up for me was brilliant. We both shared a

Vom Workawayer (Hannah) für Host
I spent a week and half at Jethro's place and I enjoyed it so much.
Jethro makes it very easy for oneself to feel comfortable and at home. He is very knowledgeable and conversations with him were always interesting, diverse and enriching, which was enjoyable during walks or around a nice cup of tea.

While I was there, my work mainly consisted in getting the garden beds ready for sowing, which we did with Jethro at the end of the week. I was very lucky with the weather as the sun kept me company every day.
After our day's work, I would chill, go for a walk alone or with Jethro and the dogs, or we would enjoy the sun sipping tea and reading on the doorstep. We would make dinners that were always very delicious and filling!
In a few words: Jethro is a wonderful host, I can only recommend him, and you can be sure to enjoy your time in Gort!Vom Host für Workawayer (Hannah)
Hannah was a pleasure to host. She was great company to have around the place. A quiet girl but full of chat, smiles and laughter too. We had some lovely conversation about life, work, traveling, music, sea slugs (a particular passion), the state of plasma and plenty of other things too.

Denise was a really great all round workawayer. She's spent nearly three weeks with me in Gort. A lovely energy to have around, positive and pro active.

Carla and Aston were brilliant. We hit it off straight away and had more than one late night it has to be said.

Jethro is perhaps the most brilliant and interesting person we have met on our Workaway journey. So unbelievably kind and he had the most hilarious and interesting stories. Lua and Basil are adorable and made our stay such a happy one. We enjoyed the gardening and lovely walks in the burren. Hope we can all meet up again (",)

Vom Host für Workawayer (Cynthia & Dan)
Cynthia and Dan were great housesitters/dogminders. They are really nice people, very easy to get along with. Totally trustworthy.
