Descripción
Looking for healthy, adventurous and cheerful people to help us with light DIY in an old house and garden in Connemara.
Nice accomodation and good food in return for help with gardening, painting, moving furniture around and dog minding/walking. The garden needs some help! Anyone with "green fingers" or good DIY would be a blessing.
We speak differing levels of French, Spanish and German besides English, and we are well travelled and outgoing. We usually have friends and family staying.

We are well travelled and friendly. We are Irish/English - and talk about Ireland and Irish culture. We enjoy mixing with different cultures and talking about international affairs. We lived in central London for a long time and also Brussels and Dublin. Orla now lives mostly in Portugal.
Ayuda
No more than 5 hours a day during week days. Practical people who are not afraid to get their hands dirty. Must like dogs - large, affectionate and energetic!

Eating with us. I cook every night. We eat well - everything from Irish food like Guinness Stew to Italian, Chinese and Indian.

Lots to do in Connemara. Beautiful beaches for swimming, boating, fishing and scuba diving. Great walking, climbing, cycling, music in pubs. Usually, my workaways make friends with other young travellers in the local village.

Orla was a lot of fun - she took me for my first ever Irish coffee at the pub upon arrival, brought me along for a day trip to Galway while she ran errands,… read more
He would work away quietly in the garden - and it looks a lot better now that it did before.
I recommend him highly to other future hosts.
Orla and John are two great people, helpful and nice.
Thanks to them i improved my english, i learned to garden and i visited the west of Ireland.
Orla is an exceptional cook and the house is beautiful, I thank them very much for the wonderful experience they gave me.
He was due to stay for a couple of weeks. I persuaded him to stay on.
He is extremely good at outside and inside work. Strong as an ox. Very capable. He can work his way around a garden in a day. In the house he can fix dishwashers(takes them apart, being a mechanical engineer), electrics, paints and just… read more
