About Me

BACKGROUND: I am a 21 year old Irish Student and have deferred my final year to travel the world! Throughout the past year I have been to so many life changing places and have met so many amazing people and would love to meet some more.

I am new to couch surfing but am excited to get involved in it while travelling for the next 2 months and then host some people once I'm home.

ABOUT ME: I like to consider myself very easy to get along with. In my free time I like to practice yoga, read, have a few drinks or chill with friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and it's a great cheap way to travel anywhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteered in Nicaragua for 2 months which was one of the greatest experiences I will ever live through.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you everything and all which is Irish (language, culture, dance, music).

I also speak basic Mandarin and intermediate Spanish. I would love to teach or learn more from hosts.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to converse and learn about people and their cultures and different ways of life. Having grown up in a small city in a small country I always find it fascinating to meet new people and see the differences between my country life and that other people have lived.
