"Working for Clare and Donal was everything I could have hoped for in a Workaway experience as a Workaway Ambassador. An amazing adventure company and lively hostel. They become like family to me, they took complete care of me while I was there, made sure I always had everything I needed, and taught me everything I needed to know about surviving in Ireland. They are by far the best craic you will ever find and will all remain close friends for many years to come."
