Description
We are an Irish Polish family, living in a colourful village in Beara, West Cork, Ireland. Pawel is a visual artist, a painter and Emma is a Community worker.
What We Need:
People who have experience with children. Our children are our no.1 consideration when meeting a new Workaway. We would like if you have references from previous hosts for this reason.
We are looking for friendly, sociable and energetic work-away people to come and help out at home, cleaning and cooking, day to day tasks, gardening (this is a new house) and help with art projects from time to time.
If you love to explore and get out and about by yourself. This is for you!
If you love to mostly stay in your room/ not interact with the family and eat alone - This is Not for You!
We are an active and busy family, with all of the noise and chaos that comes with it, so understanding of family with children is a must. You are an influence to our children so come and share good vibes!
The Village:
We live in the village of Eyeries, there is a daily bus service to Kenmare, Co Kerry and to Bantry, Co Cork and to the local town, Castletownbere. The village has a cafe, 2 pubs, 2 shops, and a post office for all your essentials. We are on the Wild Atlantic Way and there are many walking routes and ocean exploring. An outdoor enthusiasts dream place.
What to expect when you arrive here:
With every visit we learn.
We have a little information pack with things to know about our home, bus timetables and things like this.
We will schedule your work hours and times so that you can arrange your time to travel and explore outside of your work schedule.
Your space:
You will have your own bedroom room with a desk and place to put your clothes and things. We believe it is important for you to have your own space to close the door and have some chill time. Please don't spend all your free time in your room. There must be a balance.
Musicians welcome!
We are musicians and play music locally and also with a band, Non Toxic Orchestra, at events, so you would be welcome to join in with us, whether for playing or simply enjoying.
Pawel has a sailboat and would love to bring you out sailing too. Sailors welcome!
Meals:
Main meals are provided. Any extra snacks/plant based milks/ speciality vegan food etc.. you supply for yourself.
We have name labels for any food you buy for yourself.
We eat meat (though not every day). Meat is part of our main meal. If you want to eat more meat than that, you must purchase for yourself.
We eat dairy. We cook veggie meals too.
A cooking schedule will discussed.
Past Experiences with Workaway:
We moved here 2 years ago. You will see from our Reviews that we had workaway's at our previous home, where we made an annual summer festival! We made great memories with our work away crew and will always cherish they help they gave us. We live a bit quieter these days but still make music events and community projects.
We have been welcoming Workaways again to our home for 2025 and all experiences have been good ones.
