The family is kind, open, and welcoming, which I really appreciated. However, I sometimes felt tension in the atmosphere. The area is peaceful but quite isolated, and I was hoping for more social interaction with people my age. One older volunteer often made fun of me behind my back, which really affected me especially when you're abroad and already trying to adapt. Despite that, I'm still grateful for the experience and what it taught me. However thanks a lot for the hospitality !

Nils, the tension that you felt was definitely coming from your accommodation area not us! You say you wanted more social interaction but you spent all your evenings on your computer in the dark or on your phone. On your days off you always stayed around the site and never ventured far. You could of gone to galway or sligo and stayed in a hostel and chatted with people. If your looking for social interaction with people you have to make an effort. Even at the dinner table you barely said a word.

Voluntariado tranquilo en zona rural de Irlanda. Se trabaja de miércoles a domingo con tareas variadas como cortar madera, limpiar pods o podar ramas. El desayuno es básico (cereal), almuerzo ligero (sándwiches) y la cena la cocina un voluntario por turno (no esperes comida "gourmet"). El internet es limitado y no llega al dormitorio. Recomiendo preguntar antes si habrá más voluntarios, qué tareas harás y qué eventos están planeados por parte de ellos, estarás 4 semanas por lo que debes sentirte cómodo. Usa tus días libres (lunes y martes) para explorar Irlanda. Amigable y amable familia! :)

Hey thanks for the review. Did your one not show up on your account because I definitely filled it out the day after you left.
