Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To live a life less ordinary! That's why I live in Russia, and I plan to get the most out of it!
ABOUT ME
I'm Irish but I've been all over the place. Seeing new places is my favourite thing to do, but if I can see them by somehow living there or connecting I like it 10 times more.
I work hard, travel a lot and enjoy a good weekend. I've been in Moscow for 7 months and I would like to be here another 18 months, and really make sure I know and love Russia and her people before I'm done!
I just turned 31 which is depressing, but all the more motivation to keep going with getting the most out of life.
PHILOSOPHY
Someone once said to me "don't die with the music still inside you" and the phrase both excited me and depressed me. I want to get the most from life and I want to give things to this world. So, I travel, I volunteer, I'm living in Russia and trying to learn Russian. I want to get everything I can from the time I have.

Teach, Learn, Share
I'll talk to anyone about Ireland! About the places I've been and the work I've done - this includes volunteer work in South Africa, hiking up Mt Kilimanjaro, climbing in the alps, studying in Belgium, falling in love in Disneyland Paris and seeing as much of Australia as is possible in 3 weeks. Professionally I'm an HR manager who loves to coach people - and I'm trained to use many psychometric profiling tools, so if you fancy having your personality analysed, I'll do that too.
