About Me

Chatty with a good sense of humour, admittedly dark at times! Fun and outgoing and up for trying stuff once. I enjoy socialising and going to theatre, festivals, films, hiking, swimming. Very easy going and low maintenance person. I have been living in Australia for the past 2 years and am travelling to Vietnam soon to live and teach English in Ho Chi Minh City.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet fun, sociable, outgoing people while on my travels, strike up friendships, find date buddies and a couch if I'm stuck! Hopefully I can repay the favour too :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kinds of music from hip-hop, world, afrobeat, electronic, house, disco. Always up for going to a gig or festival to check out the local scene. Love a good boogie & a bit of Karaoke.

Same with movies- arthouse, comedy, classics and everything in between.

I like psychology books, autobiographies, education...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Glacier Hike on Franz Josef Glacier in NZ.

Teach, Learn, Share

All of the above. Having studied education, I firmly believe the philosophy that 'everyday is a school day'

Always open to new experiences and try to say 'yes' to everything. Can help you learn English (but you will probably need to ask me several times to slow down!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a good sense of humour and will endeavour to be a kind, polite and considerate host. Cook them a nice meal or two if it suits us both.

Stories of my travels and teach them all about my country in the hope they might come and stay with me in Ireland some day!

Countries I’ve Visited
