Description
We are an energetic, busy, fun family. Our children learn Irish which we would be happy to introduce you to. We also do many sports, including GAA (Irish football and hurling) which we would love to teach to our workawayer. Its fast paced and very tiring, but great fun.
We are hoping for someone to come join us from August 26: ideally someone to help with daily housework, cook evening meals, garden maintenance.
Preference given to longer stays but ideally needs to be minimum of 3+ months. We love to help our workawayers integrate into the local area, support them in building new friendships and source work/jobs etc if needed.
We have 3 self sufficient kids - girl 9, boys 10 and 12 (i work from home most days so am here to supervise the kids).
We have a lovely house, you would have your own room and only share bathroom with kids. Everything you need is walking distance.
We are very close to city centre and a fabulous park (St Annes) - 2nd biggest in Dublin.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Irish family seeking cultural experiences. We love to be introduced to different nationalities and languages. For someone to stay with us they will experience us speak Irish, if they wish they can help with kids with their Irish homework and play Irish sports such as hurling/GAA (Irish football).
Fabulous own room close to large park and city centre. -
