I'm a 21 year old Irish student. I live near the beautiful west coast of Ireland and I'm in Italy for the summer before I return to continue my studies. I recently volunteered on a farm in Calabria for 6 weeks and now I'm doing some travelling around Italy before returning home. I love to chat over a couple of beers or a nice coffee and learning about other people's way of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have travelled alone in the past (while working in Holland) and I found it difficult to go a full day without a meaningful conversation. Therefore, I am looking for some company and to make some friends while I travel alone through Italy.

Interests

I love exploring new places and being active. At home I play Gaelic Football (Ireland's national sport) and while abroad I love to go on long walks around a city with some breaks in local bars or cafes.

• rugby
• biology
• different cultures
• biomedical engineering
• road cycling
• gaelic football
• swimming in the sea

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Hip-Hop and R&B and I love to read all non-fiction books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a 1 week road trip around Sicily with a friend I met while volunteering in Calabria - such a beautiful place!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have just finished my degree in Biomedical Engineering but I love to discuss and learn about all things cultural. I'm very interested in learning about different traditions and attitudes and I'm very happy to discuss Irish culture also.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As an Irish person, I love to have a good time, particularly over some beers. I also enjoy helping people improve their English and teaching some Irish expressions!
