Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To shake up my life and break bad habits.
ABOUT ME
I'm a bit of a dreamer, I love making up stories but they usually don't make it as far as the page. I find nature constantly inspiring and I feel most alive when I am somewhere wild and peaceful.
PHILOSOPHY
Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Khalil Gibran
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Hosting in Ireland and surfing abroad :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Awesome camping trip down to Dingle. Met some wonderful couchsurfers. It made me want to get involved and host for awhile and then surf while I travel.
Interests
I love doing anything creative, sketching, crafting, writing,sewing, photography to name a few. Reading : ) mostly science fiction and fantasy. Being outdoors is one of my favorite things to do in my spare time, because I live in the city at the moment I don't get to go adventuring in the countryside often enough.
I'm a bit of a nerd. I play lots of card and board games, I'm one of those rare freaks who Reenacts and Larps, life's no fun if you take your self to seriously anyway.

Music, Movies, and Books
movies; Battle royal, The cloud atlas,The secret Garden, The martirx, the Garden state, anything by studio ghibli (Its too hard to pick a favorite) 28 days later!
Music: A little bit of everything depends on my mood mostly mellow acoustic stuff, I love Iron and wine, Laura Marling, Mumford and sons also Rage Against the Machine, Queens of the Stone Age, A Perfect Circle.
Books: At the moment anything by Ursla le Guin, Garth Nix still has a place in my heart with his novel Sabriel. Short stories by Ted chiang are pretty amazing.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Proformed as Sir Galahad in a school play of monty python and the holy grail, Epic moment!
A thunderstorm over Prague, magic :)
Camping for a month on sherkin Island of the west cost of Ireland and meeting wonderful people passing through there.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach you to make a book or journal from scratch, yup that means hand sewing each page together so along with the nessary materials you also need a lot of patience.
I can teach you other crafty things too like Macrame.
I can also teach you a few words of Irish :)
