About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To feed my hunger. My hunger is best satisfied by making art, other people, meditation, nature and dancing

ABOUT ME

I am incredibly curious, I am fascinated by people and human endeavour. Which is partially why I became an actor.

Mostly I am scared to do the things I do, but more scared at the prospect of not doing them. So I recently moved to London, I've travelled South America and Eastern Europe, I've sailed and surfed around the coasts of Ireland.

PHILOSOPHY

I hope to have infused my life with meaning, a little more each day. I am a work in progress, and I hope I'm still interested and curious and excited when I'm 90.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to host people and have a flexible schedule so I can sometimes show people around. I can recommend good yoga classes, theatre shows, dance performances and nice cafes and restaurants within walking distance.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only surfed a couple of times, but it's always been such a lovely experience. Its just so nice to be coming to a home, where there are people who you can have a little chat with, and a cup of tea and feel welcomed. I can't really describe it, but it's a really beautiful feeling.

Interests

The arts, nature, meditation, people, architecture, music (electro and techno in particular at the moment). I run a production company with another artist and I am interested in creating entertainment / art experiences. In my art I am always looking to move people, inspire people. I think that's the highest ambition I have.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many. Overwhelmed at the prospect of answering this question.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked Torres del Paine in Patagonia. I never thought I could do a 5 day hike by myself, but I did. I navigated, cooked, and did everything for myself. It was hard and beautiful and really was a pivotal moment in my life. I really realised that I can do so much more than I think I am capable of. That was when I was 18 and it's stayed really strongly with me ever since.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to learn how to use a sewing machine.

I can teach you how to put on a toilet seat. I recently did this for the first time and I couldn't be prouder ofmyself!

I can teach you a little about essential oils and massage.
