What a beautiful experience! It was a real pleasure to meet Eoin and his family. I recommend this experience if you want to be in contact with nature and enjoying in a relax atmosphere. You also have the possibility to do different types of schedule and this is cool. We as a volunteers share our own little house, so there is the opportunity to meet people and practicing your English (if this is one of your goals). the farmis a small town, but you have a good public transport to get to Dublin, maybe there is just one “inconvenience”, you need to walk 10 minutes by road to get to town.

I worked in the house cleaning and watching the 2 daughters (6&8). They also have two teenage sons in the house but we didn't watch them. I would do dishes, vacuum, mop, and general cleaning. The house is a 30 minute walk and 45 minute bus ride into Dublin. From dublin you can get anywhere in the country. I also did some gardening work. The hours were respected and the family is super kind! They also provide food for you!

I had an incredible experience, I live in a big city, for me being in the countryside is always special! I love the silence of the countryside, it's been almost two months, and I say goodbye with a pain in my heart, I'm already missing the animals, Abbi (horse), Cammy, cats, chickens, birds, cows, sheep and everything I experienced in this work, which for me was a great pleasure! Eion helped me a lot, correcting my English and pronouncing patiently! I thank Eion and his family for the welcome!
