About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Wondering and wandering

ABOUT ME

I left Ireland in a camper van for Morocca about 5 years ago. I got distracted along the way and ended up walking "The Camino" through the Pyreneese (825 km)
After a wonderful month hiking through northern Spain I decided to put my camper into storage and to go travelling and see where life would take me.
I went to the most remote festival in the world "Festival-au-Desert" in Timbuctoo by 4*4 and camels.Hiked through the Atlas mountains,went overlanding through Turkey ,Syria,Jordan,Israel and Egypt.Bused around Northern India,Hiked through Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam , Cambodia, beach bummed in Ko Lanta worked and hitch hiked around New Zealand and then relocating camping vans up and down the east coast of Australia and Tasmania.I
returned back to Ireland in 2011 and since then Ive travelled to Holland ,Cuba and Italy .
I am currently living and working in the seaside town of Tramore Co Waterford.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Having travelled so much and been shown so much kindness by people all over the world I would now like to return that kindness to travellers visiting the beautiful South East of Ireland.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I only really couch surfed once in Melbourne Australia. I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to share some ones home and the openness and kindness they showed me.
