Description
Hello! We are Oliver and Ori. We live - with more members of our family - in a beautiful site located in Bective by the banks of river Boyne and close to a number of historical sites such as Trim Castle, Hill of Tara and Newgrange. There is a bus stop right beside our house so getting to and from Dublin is easy. There is also a bus going to Drogheda, Slane, Mullingar and Athlone.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I'm Irish, and Ori—who teaches Irish dancing in Trim—is Chilean. Both English and Spanish are spoken and taught in the house. Ori takes part in cultural organisations related to Irish Culture and Heritage in Trim, so anyone interested in joining any of these groups is more than welcome. There are also many historical sites to visit nearby, and we're very accessible from both Dublin and Drogheda.

Accommodation
Own private caravan with fast Wi‑Fi and a fully equipped kitchen. Shared bathrooms and showers are available on-site.
The location is peaceful and quiet — ideal for winter stays, especially for introverts who enjoy solitude and slow days.
We’re right in the heart of rural Ireland, so if you’re a very social person seeking excitement, the cold and dark months can feel a bit daunting, as there isn’t much happening nearby. But for those who appreciate calm, privacy, and a cosy retreat, winter here is perfect.
Access to river for swimming.
200meters from traditional Irish pub
200meters from bus stop to/from Dublin (70- minute trip) -
What else ...
We are looking for volunteers; this is not a paid position, but staying with us will allow you to save a good amount of money during your trip, as we cover accommodation and food. The helping hours are flexible, as we mainly need a hand with general house cleaning. You’ll have plenty of time to explore the country and, if you wish, to look for a part-time paid job nearby. We prefer volunteers over 25 years old who are comfortable with rural life and its challenges.
