About Me

CURRENT MISSION

at the moment i'm killing time till my college marks come back

ABOUT ME

At the moment i'm in a limbo as to how to go forward with my life. I'm waiting for college marks to return and then i'll be able to decide. Until then... I guess i'll just goof around, travel south and meet people and be happy and glad.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a punk, not a very obvious one though. I dress regular and do all the normal things but my philisophy is very punk. When in doubt or when you meet something you don't understand, strip it down to basics and rebuild it in a way that you do. And always stay mellow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I don't. I'm new to this and i'm not in my home country and don't expect to be for the next two months. But i will. It won't be decent to just exploit

Interests

I read a lot, all sorts of things history, politics and sad french novels. I follows sports especially football or Ireland, in just about anything. I watch a lot of movies, far too many but i love them and all the stories waiting for me to discover. I like to travel and meet new people, new ways of thinking, new ways of speaking, so many new things that I can never be bored.
