My name is Gill and I’m a high school teacher of Art & Design currently working and living in Australia! I’m Irish ☘️ … On my journeys I bring with me good spirit and a good sense of humour! I started travelling two years ago, my first trip being six months through Central and South America. During this time I have been to twelve different countries and my plan is to continue to add more to my resume! ☺️ This is my second year living and working in Australia I lived in Sydney where I taught for five months and then I set off travelling the East Coast and found a new home in Port Douglas for some months before moving to Tasmania where I currently reside! I am new to this app my partner Bruno told me about it, we plan to use it to travel together and also for some solo adventures!!! 🌎😀

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to experience new places and meet new people. When I started my travels I was travelling solo but one of the best things to come of it was all the amazing people that I met and friendships formed with people from all over the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I have done is change my life around by moving to a new country. I have always wanted to travel but for so long I was caught up with the conventional way of living. After my studies I got a permanent job and I was happy but that desire to travel and see new places was always present and was something that I needed to fulfil. I am now living my dream working and travelling around the world! 🌎 Where to next? … I don’t know but for now let’s keep on exploring! ✌🏼😊

Teach, Learn, Share

I love my home country of Ireland 🇮🇪 … I can tell you everything you need to know about travelling around Ireland and I can share with you my culture and traditions. I have recently completed a TEFL course to teach English. I am also learning Spanish so maybe that’s something we could exchange and share. I like to take pictures and capture memories of my travels! I could share with you the experiences of my travels and the photos that I’ve taken along the way! On my profile you can see some of places I have been! 🫶🏼
