Description
About Me
Hi! I’m a busy mum living in Carrigaline, Co. Cork with my two children, aged 9 and 11. We enjoy a relaxed family life and making the most of everything Cork has to offer. Our home is friendly, welcoming and easy-going.
Update (Sept 2026) My garden project is now complete and I am finished hosting for the year until May 2027 again. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Carrigaline is a fantastic base to explore Cork. We’re close to beautiful beaches, cliff walks, sea swimming spots and lovely cafés, while still being very well connected to Cork City with a 24 hour bus stop right outside. There are gorgeous areas nearby like Crosshaven, Myrtleville and Fountainstown for beach days and coastal walks, and Cork City is easy to reach for shopping, music, food and culture.

What else ...
In your free time there’s lots to explore locally — beaches, coastal walks, sea swimming spots, cafés and Cork City itself, which is easy to reach by bus as there’s a stop right outside the house. Carrigaline is a friendly, safe town with good shops and great access to nearby places like Crosshaven, Fountainstown and Kinsale.
There is a 24 hour bus service outside the door which goes to beaches, City etc -
