  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  In terms of sharing our culture, the workawayer will have the chance to go to the local pub, to see live music and table quizzes and other events. There are also 3 GAA pitches within a 10 min drive. The GAA is a central part of life in rural Ireland and we would be happy to take the workawayer to matches to see our traditional Irish sport.
  
  We will provide learning opportunities on the farm in terms of animal care and animal husbandry. Jeremy has a lifetime of experience with dairy cows and is happy to train up and share his knowledge with a willing and enthusiastic worker who is keen to learn
