  Descripción

  I live in West Cavan. It's a very old cottage. My garden is fairly wild. I am an artist and teacher, musician and a Buddhist. My training is in horticulture so there are lots of possibilities but I haven't heaps of time or energy with the big tasks.
  It's very rural. I have a bike, needs fixing.Have a cat and a dog. Daughter too but she is travelling.

  . I'm driving all around the county during the week, I can give lifts on my days off or on my way to work. Buddhist centre is 2K down the road, about a half hour walking. There are many volunteers there, travellers and work away folk. I manage the garden.There are Lots of lakes here, scenery UNESCO site. Local traditional music scene 15 minutes drive away. Bogs. Very peaceful (when the farmers aren't making silage or hay). Many ancient monuments, would be of interest to archeological and anthropology scholars. I teach crafts, felt, weaving, natural materials. All sorts of stuff.

  The garden tasks would be sawing wood, tidying around, pulling up and cutting invasive bamboo. Bibs and bobs. The house needs a little finishing, painting, replacing some wooden bits. General tidy and cleaning and cooking. It's very rural. I have a bike, I need help fixing it.
