  Description

  Availability for immediate start.
  
  Hi, we are a family of 3, my husband, myself and our son. We love travelling, reading, walking, hiking, discover new places, watching films, gardening, and particularly we love nature. We live in a quaint bungalow in the Dublin mountains with a stunning view over the city. We are surrounded by beautiful forests, amazing hiking trails, bikers' paradise and yet easy access to visit Dublin city. We are in the process of setting up new areas in our garden, including a border with pollinator friendly plants to promote the increase of bumble bees that are currently in decline.
  We are also trying to create new borders and replacing old plants and grasses with new ones.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are very happy to practice with you the English language, watch together films in the evening time, take you to some outstanding hikes (you don't need any experience in this), and show you some of our favourite walks. I love photography so I can show you the best opportunities for great photos if you like nature,animals and flowers.
  At the end of our road, you can enjoy the view of the whole city of Dublin. Visitors, cyclists and hikers all love this place and love to take a selfie of themselves with a lovely background of the city of Dublin! We will be more than happy to explain you the history of our place, take you to some beautiful parks around us and close by museum if you like it, show you around the most beautiful forests in the mountains, a nearby lake, and tell you all about the interesting activities and places to visit around us. There are great opportunities for either walking, hiking and cycling while exploring the Dublin mountains. We love to meet new people and learn from different cultures and always learn from each other.

  Aide

  We are looking mainly for help in our garden, we will be working together in creating new borders. We have a quite large and big garden, so we will be delighted to have an extra hand and some help with it.
  We would love help in clearing some brambles, ivy and some weeds, nothing too difficult.
  We are very flexible in choosing your hours of the days in helping us.
  It would be great if you had an interest or some knowledge of gardening, but willing to learn a new skill is the most important to us.
  If the weather is bad there are some indoor jobs that need doing, such as painting a door or a table and small DIY tasks if you are willing to help.
