Beschreibung
I love to travel and meet new people! I'm definitely not one of those travelers that books 5 star hotels and only goes to the touristy-y things because that doesn't give me a good feel for the country (besides, who can afford that??). I backpacked in South America for 3 months and absolutely loved it! All of my best memories are where I was interacting with people I had met, and experiencing the countries the way the locals do. Now, I'm backpacking around Ireland, completing a 3-month knitting project that documents historical Irish knitwear.

I'm an animal and nature lover - I grew up on a farm and volunteer at animal shelters. I also love art and fashion, and science (I was a physics major in college!).

Was könntest du arbeiten?
Having grown up on a farm, I am skilled at animal husbandry (the farm had meat sheep and chickens both for meat and eggs), gardening (fruit & nut trees, vegetables, etc.), and building/handywork (I've helped build sheds, irrigation systems, and done some electrical work).

I babysat and tutored children for about 10 years. I have done one-on-one tutoring and also volunteered in my community to tutor underprivileged children (I volunteered with the Daniel's Center for Math and Science in Raleigh, if you want to look them up). I have a degree in physics, so I can definitely help tutor kids in math and science, as well as English and the social sciences.

I have a physics degree and also an art degree, so I'm happy to help with any nerdy or artistic projects. I'm good with computers, whether that's for coding or graphic design.

Vom Workawayer (Anne) für Host (Help me with gardening, ...)

Rosemary was amazing! She's such a warm and nice person, and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I stayed for 6 days in October 2023, and I would have gladly stayed longer if I didn't already have other plans.

The accommodation was great. Her house is lovely, and I essentially had a whole wing all to myself. I had my own room and bathroom, both of… read more which were clean and comfortable. I also had free range of the house, including the kitchen. Rosemary did pretty much all of the cooking, and her cooking is great. If you stay with her, I highly recommend asking for her lasagna, it was the best I've ever had.

As for what I did, there was some yard work that I did whenever we had a nice day. I mowed part of her lawn with a weed wacker (I kept having to re-charge the weed wacker, and it would start raining while the battery was charging, hence me only cutting part of it), planted some flowers, did some weeding, and used a leaf blower to clean up leaves. There was also indoor cleaning. At the time, she was dealing with a moth infestation, so I did a lot of vacuuming and moth-prevention techniques. I also did some mopping and organization. The expectations were clearly set, and Rosemary had a list that she would add to as the week went along, so I always knew what I could be doing. She was very flexible with when I got stuff done. I had a few obligations while I was there, and she was happy for me to go off and do those things, and just do the chores around them.

The house is in a cute little village, with grocery stores (and a few shops, cafes, pubs, etc.) within walking distance. There's also the greenway, which is a really pretty walk. Buses to Waterford are pretty easy to take if you want more of a city-vibe. Rosemary also made an effort to give me cultural experiences. She took me to Dungarvan one day, so I got to experience the seaside and wander around that town for a bit. She also made me traditional Irish meals, and suggested fun things that I could do when I went into Waterford. I'm working on a knitting project at the moment, and she was happy to help out, showing me some of her knitted jumpers and old knitting books that she had. She has also been incredibly helpful in helping me source accommodation in other areas in Ireland and even the UK. She truly can, and will, help you in whatever way you need.

I cannot recommend Rosemary highly enough. Thank you for everything Rosemary!
