I'm a 4ft11 wanderlust that is renowned for being a natural chatterbox and hostess of the most-ess. In all seriousness though I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people, exploring new cultures and broadening my mind.
I am fascinated with languages and endeavour to be fluent in at least 5 languages by the time i'm 50.
I'm Irish so naturally we love to party but at the same time i'm always up for a good cup of tea, a chat, a hike and arts and crafting.

I studied Politics and have always been interested in learning about peoples backgrounds. I lived in Paris for 5 years, Beijing for 7 months and have travelled extensively across the globe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm about to start travelling across Central and South America and friends advised me that this was a great way of meeting people and actually getting to know a culture better. I naturally have friends staying all the time in my house so it made sense to me to widen my couch surfing prospects!

Interests

Travelling and learning languages. Getting together with friends and cooking, listening to music, making cocktails. I have trained in 4 martial arts. I write songs, poetry, short stories. I love to salsa dance, rock climb and hike.
In general I love to chat, a lot!
