April has turned into a real shitstorm for me, I'll have to decline requests for this month, sorry everyone!

I'm a PhD student in Old Irish language and early medieval Irish history (400-1200 AD). I'm from Waterford in the 'sunny' southeast, and have lived in Cork for most of the last decade. New to Galway, it's nice to be back near the sea. :) I'm a pretty laid back person, going with the flow, although at this stage in my life, I guess the flow has deposited me off at some strange place downriver. Do you know the way back...?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why else? It's a nice way to meet people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Everything, and nothing. If you really care, you can get a good idea here: https://www.last.fm/user/king-loser

Movies: Lots, but generally non-Hollywood. Asian cinema is definetly my favourite. I could list a million movies, but that'd be boring.

Books: Fantasy and lots of it. Robert Jordan is my god (RIP). Currently reading GoT.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen it all... through the yellow windows of the evening train.
