Learn english in County Offaly with Sam

I work in a school and have the advantage of being on holidays for 3 months during the summer. Tom is a machine operator.

Life with your host family

We live at the foot of the Slieve Bloom Mountains where we have beautiful hiking trails, and Kinnitty Castle and Kinnitty Village are just a few minutes away from us, so there’s lots to explore.
