About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life, travel and experience as much of the world as i can..

Well im 24 and currently working as a scientist for a big pharmaceutical company. Have been travelling solo since I was around 16 and caught the travelling bug from that. I'm pretty laid back when it comes to lots of things in life while still being fairly driven towards certain goals. I have always enjoyed helping and meeting others and have been heavily involved in various charities since i was fairly young.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep striving to get better and experience more in life. Get out and about and you will be rewarded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Only starting out so I'll have to see how this goes. Can possibly host people, i work long weeks so am not around very often sometimes so hosting will depend on this and my housemates availabilitu. Gained a lot of knowledge from my grandfather about the various ins and outs of the city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just couchsurfing meetups so far.

Interests

Reading, Rugby, Travelling( of course :p ), Cycling and just general adventure and mischief and whatever it entails. Love just heading off on day trips and spins and getting out of the house.

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of Dickens and Steinbeck. Favourite movie would probably have to be Leon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had the chance to help refurbish an orphanage in Belarus, most amazing week of my life. Going skydiving and having a parachute malfunction on my first jump was also fairly interesting.

Teach, Learn, Share

Certainly can't teach anything about cooking but could certainly teach an Irish song or two or a dabble of Gaeilge.

Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Cambodia, China, England, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, North Korea, Northern Ireland, Poland, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States, Viet Nam, Wales
