Description
We are a busy family of Mum Maeve and my three Sons (16, 11 and 10) and of course our dog Rocky.
We live between the mountains and sea in Dublin, both walking distance in a small village but also very close to the Dart/Buses and Luas all Dublins public transport options. About 40mins from the city centre and close to Wicklow.
When I was young my family had lots of international language students stay over the summer months and this was the greatest fun, we exchanged so much enriching experiences that I would like to have that for my children. We have a good location and lovely apartment with great views and great fun to offer, during the summer months just fun company and maybe some d.i.y or household little jobs. Nothing much I dont mind a mess as long as everyone is happy and well fed!. I am parenting alone in Dublin but the boys go often to their dad's farm in Sligo which would also be something nice to experience for a workawayer. Sligo is another beautiful part of Ireland.
We are looking forward to the experience! (We only have a bedroom with a double bed to offer)
