Help needed in this country home. Ireland

Description

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

Our family is very Irish we love the Irish culture and sharing it with visitors. We love going to traditional sessions and have a keen interest in Irish history.

Personally I love being outside, hiking travelling and exploring Ireland. If you want you can work Monday to Friday and have the weekends off to do your own thing or you can come with me during the week or what ever day it's sunny to go hiking!

We do live in a very remote area but we are happy to give you a lift to the nearest town to get a bus if you need. The cliffs of moher are about 30 mins away and Galway about an hour, Doolin is a great spot for music and we frequently go there at the weekends.

If you want to learn more about Irish culture, experience life on a farm and to become an extended part of the family this is defiantly for you!

Help

I'm going to need help both inside and outside the house. We live on a farm so it will largely depend on weather what we are going to do.

Inside the house we are going to redo a bathroom and bedroom as well as other general maintenance. There will also be other more general housework, cleaning, cooking, washing, ironing and there is a few rooms to declutter.

Outside there is lots to do with the horses so if you have experience with horses that would be amazing! If not we can always teach you.
