I was born in England, just north of London. When I was 12 our family moved to Ireland. Changing to the countryside was difficult at first but I very much appreciate it now. I studied film in St. Johns college of Cork, a place where I felt truly at home. Cork is a wonderful student city with a great activities but it rains an awful lot.

When I finished school I found a great job with Apple computers, great pay and great perks. I loved the corporate lifestyle for the time I was there.

I'm an easy going guy, very polite and I get along with everybody.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A couple of years ago I decided to travel a bit. I spend a week in Vancouver, Canada and than I came to the LA to visit a girlfriend from the internet. We ended up getting engaged but as our wedding date approached everything broke down and we parted ways. I've been trying to get my life in order back in order since then. I worked construction for a while and I've learnt lots but I'm getting further away from what I truly love to do.

I've stayed with a few friends but I don't want to be a burden on anyone so I thought I'd give Coachsurfing a go while I'm going to interviews and job hunting.

Interests

I love soccer but I can't play right now because I'm resting my knees. I follow Chelsea F.C. as much as I can. I also enjoy swimming, snowboarding and wakeboarding.

I like cooking for people and learning new recipes.

I love discussing philosophy, religion, politics and economics but I'm not pushy and I usually ask more questions than anything. I am a sponge, I love to learn new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

I studied film-making so I obviously love movies. I'll watch any kind but I prefer horror, adventure, period and drama. I care less for Comedies but I still get a kick out of them.

I love alternative music. Foster the People, Lana Del Rey, Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies. I love a bit of electronic music and classic rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm lucky enough to have done lots of amazing things and I want to do so much more.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook pretty good!

I can help with anything computer or media related.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I don't have a lot, I have a MBP and a snowboard but I doubt that'll be of any use at this time of year. All I can really offer is some good company.
