  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.
  
  I will be renovating parts of the house in September , so my main project is getting everything organised and creating a calm, functional home. I’m looking for a female Workawayer who enjoys decluttering, organising and creating practical storage solutions. There will also be some gardening, such as tidying outdoor areas and helping keep the garden looking neat for July 16th for 1 week.
  
  The work is varied, from home decluttering and garden If you enjoy organising, seeing a space transformed and taking pride in creating order, I think you’ll really enjoy this project.
  
  I’m looking for someone who is positive, respectful, tidy and easy-going.
  
  
  Current Availability
  
  * 16th July – 23rd July (1 week): Looking for one female Workawayer.
  * 4th August – 18th August: I have 1 Italian Workawayer and looking for another non Italian Workawayer both will share same accommodation. See below
  
  Please note (3rd July): If you’ve sent me a message recently and I haven’t replied, my apologies—we’re currently away in Sicily for three weeks. I’ll get back to everyone as soon as I can.

  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.
  
  We live a relaxed but respectful family lifestyle. I’d appreciate someone who is tidy, easygoing, communicative and comfortable around children. We enjoy a calm, positive home environment, so cleanliness and mutual respect are important. Flexibility is always appreciated and in return I want people to feel comfortable, included and at home here.
