Description
We are a family of four, spread out between three homes in a lovely garden., with a small cabin for workawayers. Myself (Jayavati), my husband (Jeremy) and my daughter (Govinda) with her little girl (Alaya).
We grow organic vegetables, and keep a few dogs, cats, ponies and peacock.
We need help with the garden and various projects around the gardens.
Jeremy designs eco houses and I am a retired psychotherapist and horse trainer. The gardens are a lovely peaceful place to be, and we are in a most beautiful part of Ireland.

What else ...
We live simply but in comfort and lead a joyfilled life. Enjoying the nature around us. We live in a rural area, 5 klm from the nearest village and main transport, but we go to town most days so there is opportunity to shop or explore.
Our house backs onto mountains with great trekking (the Sheeps Head Way). Spectacular views with beaches and hidden coves. Jeremy kayaks most days if the sea is calm and you will be able to join him.
We love having visitors and have been Helpx hosts for many years. We are new to workaway.
