I am Paul, a lecturer in a third-level college. It will probably be just two of us travelling to your home but it's possible my adult kids, or maybe my mother would visit for a weekend. My own kids have grown up and left home, but there are some sports things left behind available for visiting kids (tennis rackets,balls skates etc.) The neighbourhood kids play football and other games in small parks within the cul-de-sac/road, and have enjoyed playing with intervac visiting kids in the past.
Previous exchangers from Germany Italy, Austria, France, England, Holland and Spain either can give a reference or left notes or e-mails to say they really enjoyed their Irish vacation in our house.
