CURRENT MISSION

To experience new places and meet people

ABOUT ME

Someone once told me that I was unpredictable, so I guess you could say that I am a little like the weather in Ireland. :-P I like to go where the wind takes me.....and have lived in and traveled to many places. Although it wasn't my plan to come back to Ireland to live just yet, the world and my career has conspired to bring me back and to work in human rights. I am really enjoying being back, but have to get used to the 4-seasons-a-day-lifestyle....for now. :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couch surfed a couple of times in Turkey,Bulgaria, Croatia, Germany and Italy. I have been at couch surfing events while living in the Netherlands and Germany and have showed people around or met surfers while on holidays in Berlin.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have made some great friends through CS. When I decided to move to Italy and had nowhere to stay I fell on my feet thanks to couchsurfing.
