About Me

I'm an artist from Cork! I lived in Edinburgh for five years when I was at university, but now I'm back in Ireland for the foreseeable future.

I've done some solo travelling and always want to do more. The next countries to visit on my list are Georgia, Japan, and New Zealand - but there's also loads of Ireland that I haven't seen for myself yet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to meet interesting people and get a few good stories.

In 2017, my friend John and I had a really nice Couchsurfing experience in Savannah, GA thanks to Prasant (thanks Prasant!) so I hope I can return the favour to someone else someday.
