CURRENT MISSION

Until very recently, I was based in Cork, doing many of the things listed below, studying a masters, and generally having a lovely time of it.

**Currently house-less so cannot host - have spent summer 2018 traveling (and couchsurfing) through Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, France, Italy and at a residency in Finland.

I am a musician/writer of songs/English-teacher/environmental activist/cyclist/artist/scientist/traveller/sea-lover/people-watcher/listener/cafe-visitor/gig-goer..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Love the 'groups' pages - I find them so useful for whatever city I'm in. Using couchsurfing when I first arrived in Granada helped me to find a flat, a job and a group of friends all in the space of a week... CS has been the source of countless random, spontaneous adventures for me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted about 8 people so far - all great experiences. I have couchsurfed throughout Europe, particularly during cycling trips. I have met incredibly interesting and generous people.

Interests

See above. Most of all, playing and surrounding myself with music..I play the cello, guitar, bouzouki and piano and I sing and write songs, gigging here and there.
