Informationen

Beschreibung
Our house is in rural area on wild west coast, 60 km from Galway, close to Clifden. We are looking for somebody who help us with goats and horses and some other farm work. If you don't mind to spend certain time out of society in nice nature, if you are able to deal with animals, you are welcome. If you have experience in riding horses, it would be perfect . We take usually one person only and for a month is best. You see it is out experience that under two weeks is too short because by the time somebody is up to speed with everything and settled in happily, before we know it they are leaving and we have to do the same all over again with somebody new..It is nice when we get into a routine and together we can do some interesting things perhaps over weekends.. We have had several people who came for one month and ended up staying for 2 and 3 months and that has always been brilliant for both sides I think.

Vom Workawayer (Celine) für Host

I stayed more than a month at Tom & Olga's, and it was a great experience for me! They are careful, willing to teach and learn new things and very generous! I had a lot of fun experiences, such as scallops fishing in the bay at low tide, learning to milk the goats and take care of them, clearing trees and bushes, taking beautiful trips around by… read more

Vom Workawayer (Constanze) für Host

I spent four wonderful weeks at the lovely cottage of Olga & Tom in beautiful Connemara, from middle of February until middle of March this year (2019). I will never forget this time of my life!

Olga and Tom are the nicest people. We had great, deep conversations full of laughter, fun, music, talking about life, love, health, healing and many… read more more topics. Food was always great and delicious and I enjoyed our times of having lunch (where would we beeee without teeeaaa?), preparing dinner and cooking together (those Atlantic mussels were so yummy!). We spent a lot of “free” time together, going to a concert, to the pub (watching rugby, which I still don’t understand – but just look at their arses, haha!), driving around Connemara and visiting friends. The evenings, which we mostly spent together in the kitchen by the fire, were so snugly and cosy… we played cards (wizard, yeah) or laid out jigsaw-puzzles, listened to Irish trad. on the radio and played with Mili…

Mili, the enchanting dog-lady had absolutely won my heart. I enjoyed so much that she was there, listening to and looking at me with those mesmerizing blue eyes, letting me cuddle her or pamper her with a treat. Unfortunately, Mili now is not there anymore as she was suffering from epileptical seizures so badly that she had to be delivered from her pain and now has crossed the rainbow-bridge. Mili will always hold a place in my heart!

Who was definitely also great company was Theo… the cat. He was amazing and very gentle, always ready to be cuddled. And I’ve never known a cat with so much hunger (and at the same time such little weight).

In my little room upstairs I felt very comfortable… the bed was great and it was lovely to have my own space to draw back to, if I wanted (which I hardly ever wanted).

Work did not feel like work as I always enjoyed what I did. The animals (goats and horses) were such great individuals that I didn’t mind any work, which sometimes was quite exhausting… I loved these animals, especially Essa and Hazel to whom I developed special relationships, I would think. I really enjoyed learning to milk the goats (which worked right away, yeah!) and my alone-time with Hazel, but also burning the (gruesome) gorse. I never really looked at the clock, and I didn’t mind to work all day as I was really enjoying myself and did this freely. Work just had to be done!

Next time (and I am sure there will be a next time) I’ll stay longer! Miss you Olli & Tom! hugs!

It's been a really good experience!

There are so many things to do and you never get bored. During my stay I planted trees, milking goats, eating horses, setting fences, cutting trees and much more. All this in the middle of the incredible nature… read more
