Description
I am a doctor living in North Wales, currently between jobs for the next month and a half.

As it will now rain where I live for the next 8 months, I would love to go somewhere with a bit of sun! I am looking to develop new skills where possible and to meet lots of new people.

I am generally an outdoors person. I love walking, running, swimming, cycling, horse-riding and climbing. At the moment I'm thinking of going somewhere to try a bit of surfing and maybe doing a sailing course.

I had a lovely time at Achill. I was working which runs in the summer months. It's an outstandingly beautiful area and the people (and ponies!) are lovely. Things to note: the bungalow you stay in is basic but it's right by the beach and it's great to live with other workawayers. Also you can work longer hours but you are paid for this.

I had a great time in carrigart. It's a lovely relaxed atmosphere and all the family are so friendly and thoughtful, so I felt at home straight away.

The animals are lovely… read more

Joy stayed with us in August 2020, she was fabulous and helped us so much. She did lots of painting and was also a very good rider. Joy is a great cook and did lots of baking and cooked nice dinners in the evening. She was a pleasure to have in our home and we would welcome her back to visit anytime. Thank you for all your help.
