Description
Friendly and creative family seeking a bit of back-up with our garden & pets. We live in the countryside within 5 minutes walk from a shoreline (lough Foyle) 15minutes walk to the village of Muff. Next to our house we have regular local bus services to nearby towns/villages and also to the city of Derry. (from there there are buses & trains to the rest of Ireland.) We need a workawayer to take care of our chickens, cats and garden for a week in October. We would welcome a solo Workawayer or two friends travelling together.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We can provide you with an opportunity to practice English language, we love cooking and can teach you how to make some Traditional Irish meals if you like. I am also a folk singer so can teach you some Songs if you are interested in that. The location where we live is very safe and beautiful and it is easy to get to Derry and from there to other places in Ireland with good bus connections. There are also many activities in Derry such as wall climbing, libraries, nightlife, cultural events and festivals.
There are many excellent beaches and opportunities for water sports/ horse riding/ wall climbing/swimming a short drive away. We have a sea shore just across the road which is nice for walks when the tide is out. There is a couple of cafés, pubs and shops in the village of Muff which is within walking distance from our home.
Aide
The chickens need released from their house in the morning around 8.30am, they need their feeder filled up and water-drinker checked, they go into their house again at dusk so need the door closed once they have gone into sleep around 8pm and the feeder needs taken indoors overnight. The 3 cats are outdoor pets and need fed in the morning and evening and will need a their water bowl kept clean and re-filled. The cats enjoy being cuddled indoors but they have a garage to shelter/sleep in so we generally keep them outdoors. The rest of the time you would be free to do your own thing, meet people, explore, travel around the local area etc.
If you want to help out digging vegetable beds, trimming hedges, general gardening etc. all outdoor help would be very welcome.
