About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling and playing music around Europe

ABOUT ME

I'm an honest person who loves to make new friends and meet new people. Being an optimist, I believe the glass is half full and like to see the good in people and am a great believer of karma. I'm very easy going and hate confrontation.
Once I have my mind set on something I will work hard towards making it happen. I have been managing/organising music events for the past 4 years in Ireland. I try to stay as active as possible and stay healthy.

PHILOSOPHY

What goes around comes around! Live your life with as little regrets as possible! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed with some very cool hosts in eastern Europe thanks to couchsurfing. I look forward to hosting and showing people around my amazing homeland.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Pretty new to this but have surfed a little bit and have met some people who have surfed and recommended it to me.

Interests

Interests include swimming, scuba diving, cooking, walking, golf, racketball, frisbee.

Music is a major part of my life. I have been DJ'ing for over 10 years. I mostly play house, electro, techno, pop, electronica, chart, indie, dubstep, drum'n'bass, reggae, rock, etc. I appreciate all types of music!! :) In my spare time I volunteer in a local community project.

Travelling is another big interest. I have done alot so far but would like to do more. I have recently travelled around south east Asia and lived on Koh Phangan (Thailand) for a while. I became a qualified Scuba Divemaster while living there.

I love photography too and I use Photoshop a bit. I enjoy designing and would consider a course in that area at some point.

I have just completed a TEFL English teaching course and hope to gain experience teaching at some point in the future.
