Descripción
My name is Oliver. I live in a small farm house and horse yard in the middle of Ireland. Ongoing building project on the house and yard.
As of November 2023 there will be no horses here for a while - have decided to take a break and concentrate on my film making and travel a bit myself.
We are surrounded by beautiful countryside. Also run an advertising/film production company from the property.
Lots of wood to be cut, things to build still.
Would like a motivated, positive person who is at peace in nature. Creative, artists, musicians very welcome. Film making is my passion. All on a volunteer basis. Workaways are not asked to help in my business activities.
I value highly cultural exchange and skill share.
I am a keen motorcyclist and there is a dirt bike here many workaways learn to ride on.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
My business is running an advertising company and making short films so there is always a lot going on.
I think the main cultural exchange is seeing how we live here and engaging with what is going on - that will be different for every traveler.
There is a good canal network - we have kayaks- and beautiful lakes - if someone is into fishing.
We have a small garden and grow some basics. Would be interested in anyone with good gardening (food) experience.
Very interested in collaborating on creative projects, music, film.....
I do a lot of yoga and strength training, there is an outside gym and a dedicated yoga space in a converted bus.
Ayuda
Looking for a sensible minded person with good energy and a love of nature.
We have a small horse yard and property which is an ongoing building project. As of October 2023 I have made the decision to sell all my horses and take a couple of years break to concentrate on my filming and travel myself a bit.
There are two types of help required:
1) Sharing the running of the house, cooking cleaning, shopping etc.
2) Help with building and evolving the property.
I am away with work a lot so would like to meet responsible and trustworthy people who would maintain the place if I am away for a few days and who would love and take care of my dog..

Carolina - what a whirlwind of organisation tireless work and good company. She is a very sincere and straight person. Really, no offence to anyone, but the hardest working workaway I have had. The house was never as organised or as clean. She is very warm and kind hearted and simply a joy to have around. I have great gratitude for her time here.

Letizia made a big impact here. what she lacked in experience she made up for with hard work and quick learning. She is the type of person you show something once and then she conscientiously takes it on and it is done. With the horses she learned fast and as a beginner rider she showed a great fearlessness and dedication.
