  • Description

    Description

    We are a family of 6, two adults, three children age 9, 11, 14, and a small dog called Cookie.
    We live by the sea, and are active, enjoying swimming, cycling, running, and Irish Music.

    We live about 6km from the local town, and have a number of neighbours who already use Workaway.

    We look out at the ocean, and are 10 minutes walk to a lovely sandy beach, which is very popular for sea swimming.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a young family, and are involved in a lot of local activities, where the workawayer can meet, and see local culture. We have surf board, kayaks, and bicycles available to enjoy activities here. I work in Cork city, and can drop and pick up the workawayer for days, they wish to go to the city.
    They can improve their English by joining in conversation with the family.

    We hope to learn, about different cultures, by hosting someone from another country.
