About Me

I work full time in an animal welfare charity here, and would happily host people when I have days off. The days of the week that I work can vary, so that doesn't mean I am only available for weekends.

I could probably only accommodate a maximum of two people, and it really would be couch accommodation, my apartment is tiny, there is a little fold out bed thingy that could suit one person.

My home is right in the centre of Ireland, and is a great halfway point between Dublin and Galway, our two main cities (don't tell Cork!). Spending a night here you could see a little bit of what real Irish life is, we could have a drink in the local pub in a town that is not just for tourists.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was skeptical of couch surfing at first, but then I was a guest to a lovely host in Iceland and realized it is a really nice way of travelling and meeting people.
