About Me

Canadian born and raised, I moved to Dublin, Ireland in November of 2014 to gain new experiences and get out of my comfort zone. I've set my sights on travelling around the continent over the next two years while I'm here on a work visa.

I have a educational and work background in entertainment business and am a self-taught photographer with a focus on live music and travel photography. I also enjoy being crafty, writing, drinking really good beer, checking out a good show, and whipping up a kick ass meal.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a rather introverted person, meeting people in organic situations is not the easiest thing in the world for me. I truly enjoy meeting new people, and I think that connecting with people through Couchsurfing would be a great way to do so. Since I moved to Dublin alone, I travel alone for the most part. I like the idea of being able to meet new people in different countries and have them share their city with me, if they so please.

I would love to meet up while you're in Dublin! I'm unfortunately unable to host at this time, but I'd love to show you around and share what knowledge I have of Dublin with you. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Move to Dublin. A very recent accomplishment, but I see this as a sign of my growth. The person I was a couple years ago would not have been strong or confident enough to take such a leap.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to make delicious baked goods!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My desire to see their city through their eyes. I can also cook you a nice meal :)
