  Description

  We live 12 km from Galway city and 4 km from Spiddal Village in Connemara. I plan a summer of physical tasks outside my house, making lawn areas, paths and courtyard. Help needed with that. Food, conversation and the greater environment equally important.

The are free to observe my own activities which includes architectural design (mainly dwellings), charcoal drawings, traditional music (Banjo/mandolin) or making gardens, paths and pavings which I intend to undertake during the summer months . The skilled work I would carry out but need assistance with related work. We are also long enthusiasts of Argentinian Tango, which is making its post-Covid re-emergence.

  Aide

  We are a couple with a 6 year old son. Our house is on 0.6 Hectare site by the coast road in Connemara. We would like our guest suite to accommodate someone who will be strong help and good company. We have not hosted workaways before so it would be an adventure and I think the visitor would find the environment, the food and the conversation good here.

  We speak English and Irish. I get by in French and sometimes pretend to speak Spanish! or is it German? With languages I am brave but not too serious. Happy to impart what I can.
