About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoying life, being a good egg

ABOUT ME

I'm friendly, calm and open. I like travel and have lived, worked and volunteered in different countries all over the world. I'm interested in sustainability and how to live well, I did a Masters in that recently. I worked as an interior architect in Ireland for many years, and specialised in designing pubs & restaurants. I like meeting people and think life is an adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind and friendly as possible to everybody and don't forget yourself

Music, Movies, and Books

I like acoustic music, most types of movies (except scary). My favourite author is Haruki Murakami

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as a volunteer in a Tibetan Buddhist monastery here in France last year for a month. It was like stepping into a parallel universe, a good one.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English (I'm a qualified TEFL teacher), drawing, photography and photoshop, and I can help out with design (I am an interior architect by profession). I'd like to learn to play an instrument
