ABOUT ME

I'm just a fun, wee Northern Irish girl, travelling the world with my Swiss man Thomas after graduating from Finland and teaching in Austria!

We prefer to host people who are able to figure things out independently. Of course we can help you and give some of our best tips, but we don't always have the time to show you around the city.
If you would like us to host you, please use the word 'freckles' in your request. Thanks! :) ***NOV 2016 - FEB 2017 away travelling***

I love being around people, organizing events and meeting new people (though don't be offended if it takes me a while to get your name! ;))
Laughing seems to be my thing. Life is better with laughter :)

PHILOSOPHY

Laughter is the best medicine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've just met some awesome people that are on CouchSurfing and have convinced me to become a part of it :)

Interests

Of course, I like to travel, capture moments with photos, I like to write (e.g. my blog about living in Lithuania- http://lifeinlithuania.blogspot.com/ or my blog on living and travelling abroad: http://revelationsofarambler.blogspot.co.at/ Currently working on a new blog as Thomas and I explore more of the world: https://20toestravel.wordpress.com/ ), read, listen, I like to generally laugh and have fun! I'm happy to chill out with people or go and be more adventurous!

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a pretty diverse taste in movies, music and books, but adore each of these things! I can be a sucker for rom coms, but love a good thriller/drama movie. When it comes to books, I generally read what people recommend to me so it can vary a lot! Music depends on my mood, but at heart, I'm kind of an alternative rock/indie kind of girl.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Impossible to say just one! I love being by water (the sea, ocean or lake) and being mesmorised by it. But amazing landscape of other kinds can leave me awestruck (for example, Lapland and Switzerland are both capable of this, despite being entirely different!) Recently did the highest swing in the world (Nevis Swing) and bungy jumped in New Zealand! That was scary...!

Teach, Learn, Share

You don't have to be together to be together. This I have learned through travelling.
Also, learn to love snail mail again - there is nothing like receiving a letter or postcard that was unexpected!
I'm trying to learn German, and appreciate any help with this! (Germans, Austrians, Swiss, whoever!)
