Descripción
Hi. I've moved back to my old farmhouse in county Kilkenny where I can continue my work online, writing and lecturing - I work for an international NGO (charity) based here in Ireland. Much nicer than in Dublin! I'm biased but if you don't know Kilkenny, this really is a lovely part of Ireland.

I spent much of my adult life working and living abroad - including New Zealand and the US - and I'm a registered tour guide here in Ireland. I speak some French and Spanish (in an earlier life I taught English).
Ayuda
Eco-building and renovation projects I need help with. I'm hoping you have an interest in organic vegetable gardening. Bonus if you're creative or have some experience with interior design. There's also various other light work I need help with, indoor and outdoor.

Alojamiento
It is a comfortable, renovated cottage with log-burning stove, with a second living room if you prefer your privacy. You will have your own bedroom and shared bathroom. I enjoy food and can offer three meals a day - and am happy to try your cuisine!
Algo más...
There are lovely walks and cycling with woods nearby, quiet country roads and small villages. I'm fortunate to have friendly neighbours too. Nearest village and public transport is fifteen minutes walk, although I'm happy to collect/drop you. The medieval town of Kilkenny is not too far, with the charming village of Abbeyleix in the other direction.

Dejado por el anfitrión para el workawayer (Monika)

Monika is a hibernophile, and has visited Ireland a number of times. Fluent in English, she is very chatty and can hold a conversation on almost any topic. She stayed with me for a week and was very helpful, working in the garden and also inside. She is considerate, always offering to help, works hard, and is easy company - I would recommend… read more

You cannot ask for a better workaway experience. I got to spend time with a brilliant person, my host, talking and working. I did sensible and enjoyable work, had a chance to listen to really grand stories, was given great, home-made food and a comfortable room in a beautiful place in Ireland. I was taken care of and offered lifts, tips and… read more

Nicole was a pleasure to host. A great help using her own initiative, and easy company, her English is very good and she's keen to learn. You might even be lucky enough to experience her hand-picked porcini mushroom risotto! I'd recommend Nicole as a workawayer, she is welcome back here anytime.

My first experience as a workaway at Hugh's place was something that I won't forget! He can make you really comfortable in his house. We organised together what needed to be done, i was able to help with deep cleaning inside the house and collecting sticks outside in the garden.
Hugh is a great communicator, and a real gentleman. With his good… read more

Hugh was a wonderful host, delightful company and an excellent cook! We got to do a variety of jobs including gardening, bulb planting and some good old-fashioned shed destroying. A beautiful part of Ireland to stay in and a wonderful man to stay with.

Rob and Clemency stayed with me for 10 days and were a great help, as well as good company. They were hardworking, reliable and used their own initiative. I'd have no hesitation in welcoming them back anytime.

Sylvia was a pleasure to host, great company, bubbly personality and interesting stories from her professional life in classical music. She is constantly busy and can turn her hand to virtually any task - from preparing a flower bed to replacing a toilet seat! She is absolutely reliable, diligent and very respectful of someone else's home. You… read more

Conor is a quiet chap who likes to keep to himself. My experience with Conor was positive - he was respectful, tidy, diligent, and really hard-working. I consider myself fortunate to have got the benefit of his contribution.
