One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been chased by elephants in Africa because I accidentally separated the young herd from it's mother.

I've been broadcast on live radio when I was 17 years old reporting sports news.

I hitchhiked from Bucharest to Frankfurt via the Balkans and Adriatic Coast with a tent and very little money. Amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Of course, I can help you improve your English. I can teach you Gaelic Irish, a rare language linked to Scottish and Manx languages

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share with you my love and passion for this world of ours. I'm very laid back and easy to get along with and would love to share new experiences with you in your city. In return, I can offer good company, a few stories and a lot of laughs. Life is too short to be taken so serious, it's important to look on the bright side and to simply enjoy yourself.
