Hi, I have been writing to hosts all over Ireland but nobody is writing back. I would like to call that hosts, but our time zones are very different and I don't want to go waking people up.

Does anybody have any advice on how to contact hosts?

Hi there - there has been much discussion about this on the forum before, go to http://www.wwoof.ie/node/1776 and http://www.wwoof.ie/node/1609 to see it!
Many hosts don't check emails regularly, they are living quite rural lifestyles, so a longer time than you might expect to respond is not unusual, you may have to wait a bit longer than just a few days.  We do encourage hosts to reply to everyone that emails them, even if it is only to say 'no thank you'.
Also you may need to apply to quite a few hosts to get a result, so just keep trying!
