I think that travelers will benefit greatly by stopping at my place as there are many things to do in this region.
We are steeped in culture and Heritage in these parts.There are many sessions of traditional Irish music locally and beyond.Story telling,Art and many cultural walks in The Burren for example.We,the people of Kinvara host a traditional sailing boat festival every year since 1979.The festival is called "Cruinniu Na mBad and that takes place in August.There is also a Traditional weekend in May called " The cuckoo Fleadh ".
Ajuda
Your help would be very much appreciated with the "organic kitchen garden".
Home help would consist of preparing meals,general house cleaning and maintenance.
I make lots of preserves in the kitchen and again share with family and friends.
I also cut "Reed" (chaume) for Thatching roofs.I thatch roofs as a pastime and for friends.No monies exchange hands
as this is a pastime where i get my food in exchange.
I look forward to your response.

I felt welcome and comfortable from day one.
During my stay Seamus was just about finishing a roof, so there wasn’t much thatching work for me. Which was no problem at all we cut reed bundles to finish the roof and we did a bit of gardening work. Most… read more
This was my second workaway experience and I was very happy, that I had this one.
After the first experience I was not sure what to expect in Kinvara.
But as soon as I arrived I felt welcomed and very comfortable.
I hoped that I could get to know a bit of the Irish culture and I wanted to work and help.
