Hi,

Im easy going Irish guy with sense of humour and I like meeting new people. Im the 3rd of 4 children. I live in and work in Cork. I travelled a bit in Europe a few years ago ( France - 7 months , Germany - 1 year , Italy - 3 months ) I am a novice to CS but I think I could get to like it. I dont mind where I sleep once I am with good people ( Is that you ...? :) ). I'm Aries but I am not the typical one. Mars in Pisces , Moon , Venus in Aquarius , Ascendent in Cancer or Gemini ( I never know ) I like to converse and engage in conversation in all types of things. I also dont mind to just sit at a cafe by myself and watch the people go by. I also like Shakespeare , King Lear being my favourite of his Tragedies. I like reading poetry too sometimes such as Rimbaud , T S Elliot and Bob Dylan. I am a big Bob Dylan fan and generally like different types of music.. whatever sounds good to me... for eg Vangelis would fit into that category. I dont watch series and dont understand how series grips the minds of whole nations. That puzzles me !

I like Yoga, cycling, soccer and generally working up a sweat. I have lots of multi cultural friends in Cork ( French , Spanish , Italian , Sudanese , Hungarian , Polish Brazilian , )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on here as I have never tried it and am looking to meet the locals and get to know the place from their view point ( sorry if thats a cliche but its a fairly stupid question )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

dropped out of college when young and went on my own path

Teach, Learn, Share

Mercury is in Aries for me. I like to engage in conversation and listen to other peoples stories straight away. I carry around in my backpack a wordsworth classic version of T.E Lawrences "The Odyssey ". I love the story and the language so re-read chapters of it at different times.

" Friends with understanding hearts become no less dear to us than brothers "

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make a delicious, nutritious and tasty breakfast that everyone should taste. If you have fresh berries all the better:) I can treat you to dinner and share some social drinks and have good conversation in general ( politics , literature , sports , and other topics ) I can exchange cultural differences and tell you about Ireland ( if you are interested :) ) If you are learning French or German I would be able to practise with you. I have casual french and a higher level of German.
