Description
Our family consists of myself and my 16 year old son. We live in the countryside, 1km from a village, so someone who enjoys rural life would suit. We are 100km from Dublin. Lots of heritage & historical places to explore around us & we have some flexibility to introduce guests to such places. I have travelled, worked & lived in many countries and enjoy exchanging perspectives on culture, social, arts, politics and history. I am seeking volunteers (1 or 2) for garden, DIY & house work.l self-starter with initiative.
