    Description

    I am living in the North West of Ireland near to Sligo. We are near to the town but still very much in nature.Sligo has some of the best surfing and beaches in Ireland. There is vast open Atlantic coast and the beauty of the Ox mountains and Benbulben.
    I live here with my son who attends a democratic school, I teach meditation and yoga and we would love to host someone who could participate in our family by helping with some hours of care for my son who is 12 lives surfing, rock climbing, hiking and gaming.
