Seeing new places and meeting new people

ABOUT ME

Hello! We are from County Louth on the East coast of Ireland but we met in Dublin while studying animation. We enjoy the occasional pint of Guinness, walking in the countryside, cycling, swimming and being outdoors generally.

Áine: I'm 26, I'm an illustrator/animator. I like drawing monsters, taking photos, painting and drinking tea! My blog.

Finbar: I'm 28 and I'm an animator. I sing in a traditional Irish band with my two brothers and am learning klezmer clarinet. I like reading classic fiction and history. My blog
