As a trainee veterinarian looking for high value practical experience, Julia contacted me. She was simply, like a sponge. She wanted to know and learn everything and there is a great joy too for us, in teaching and sharing knowledge at that level. She has her priorities right and she knows where her knowledge gaps are and she takes action such as… read more

I stayed in the island during 7 weeks including Christmas time and it was an unique experience that I will never forget. The landscapes were so impressive that on my days off I used to walk long the beach which was next to the accomodation. Other incredible views were Keel bay and Slievemore mountain.

I had a great time staying on Achill Island and working with the Calveys family, Ray and the other workawayers!

I had a lovely time at Achill. I was working which runs in the summer months. It's an outstandingly beautiful area and the people (and ponies!) are lovely. Things to note: the bungalow you stay in is basic but it's right by the beach and it's great to live with other workawayers. Also you can work longer hours but you are paid for this.

I spent a few weeks on Achill Island and I really had an amazing time. I was working with the sheeps, helping Martin who made me discover his job and the beautiful island. I had so much fun and I'm gonna keep in my mind for long the beauty of the landscapes. Everybody was so welcoming and friendly. I'm already planning on coming back to visit!
