ABOUT ME

I'm a laid back individual, I love travelling and meeting new people. A big fan of film, and literature, but also have a passion for outdoor activity and sport,especially football (soccer) and GAA {Irish football}. Always up for an adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you would like to be treated. Do whatever makes you happy in life, as long as it doesn't ruin others ability to do the same. Forget stress.

'There's no such thing as strangers, only friends you havn't met yet'

Music: Prefer the rockier sides of music, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Rory Gallagher, and Creedence to name but a few....

Books: Love a bit of Sci-fi or Horror, anything by Lovecraft, King, Phillip K Dick, G RR Martin

Films: I love finding new foreign films from around the world, also enjoy some classic Sci-fi, any good Comedy, and love switching my brain off from time to time for some crappy action films.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Always want to do more amazing things but if I had to pick a few I would list scuba-diving and visiting tigers in South east Asia, exploring my own beautiful country Ireland, and taking in some great locations, festivals and experience around Europe with friends and family. More recently I've gotten to do some great things in Central and South America,working in a zoo in Ecuador,Volcano boarding, watching Monkeys and Sloths in their natural environments, visiting Machu Pichu and snorkelling with sharks, manatees, and sea turtles.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love people who can tell a good joke or story, and those who can be both intelligent and silly, when necessary.

Learning Spanish at the moment so any help would be great!

Hmm what can I teach....some Irish or English (or the little Spanish I know!), maybe some jokes, and some football for any beginners out there!

Glad to cook something up for hosts/surfers (but im not very good). Always happy to buy some wine/beer/food to share

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to share and exchange stories and jokes about my travelling experiences and life, Im not a fantastic cook but I'm happy to give it a try and cook something up! Always enjoy a good coversation (serious or not) over a few beers.
