  Description

  I am looking for only one female from as soon as possible .
  
  Hi,
  If you would like to live in a pretty village by a river in a beautiful historic part of Ireland and get to know Irish culture or improve your cooking. This could be a wonderful exchange for you. I am looking for a extrovert volunteer to help us with our very busy lives .
  
  Tasks will include light help around the house, painting ,walking the dogs daily , occasional housesitting , babysitting and cooking nutritional meals ( we share the cooking, taking turns) and living as a family. Driving - so must have a full license. I work nearby managing a small Hotel. I would like someone kind & outgoing with some cooking skills , creative , lots of fun and good english. My son is at school from 8 am until 7 pm & I am in and out at different parts of the day. We live forty minutes from Dublin of which a bus goes every hour and there are lots of beautiful walks and historic monuments in the area. I love to cook - We are mostly vegetarian but we do eat meat - I like to garden and design and our home is very comfortable. We live beside the village of Slane in Co Meath .
  
  Your days off can be Saturday and Sunday or Tuesday or Thursday but we can be completely flexible. We have wifi throughout the house and your bedroom is ensuite. There are lots of local activities such as kayaking, fishing, and swimming in the river in the summer. We live beside the village and there is a few restaurants and bars within walking distance - 10 mins. This opportunity may suit someone who is outgoing and used to the countryside or is a digital nomad and is looking to explore Ireland or is studying .
  
  Each week may be slightly different & we can go through the plan every Sunday.
  
  If you like my profile can you provide the following information & tell me about yourself. There is a lot of questions so we can arrange a video chat for most but the most important question is always when you can come & how long for. Thanks
