Meet your host family: Rose in Ireland

Welcome to Rose

We are a fun family in the Irish countryside, just 3km from the town centre - 45 minutes from Dublin city center.
ABOUT US:
Rosemarie - the mother.
I worked for the local newspaper until my children were born. Now I am lucky enough to work part-time from home (10-15 hours per week) providing marketing and public relations functions for a local stud farm. I love animals, especially horses.
Edward - father.
Eddie works full-time for the Irish Rail service. He is an electrician. He is a great father and likes to cook and organize day trips for his work holidays.
Emily - our daughter.
Emily is an excellent student and loves to take care of our animals. She enjoys hockey, reading, horse riding, and tennis. She is very witty and smart.
Marcella - our daughter.
Marci is also a great student. She is always laughing and smiling and is great fun. She is sensitive to people's feelings and is a kind girl. She also loves hockey and horse riding.
Edward Jr - our son.
Eddie is the youngest and he is a real prankster. He is a very chilled-out boy and enjoys relaxing. He plays football and also does horse riding. He is a kind boy.

We are a fun family in the Irish countryside, just 3km from the town centre - 45 minutes from Dublin city center.

We currently have availability for a minimum 6 week work experience stay on a shared room basis with a really lovely 19 year old German girl with a very high level of English.
Work experience is available in a local pre school at an additional cost, this will suit someone aged 17+ who would like a bit more independence but with the security and fun of a family stay. The pre school is an excellent environment to practice English and get some great work experience for your CV.
