About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find a place to live in Lille for this year

ABOUT ME

22 years old, recent graduate, I'm big into languages and travel. I've studied in Dublin for the past 4 years, one of those years I got to spend on Erasmus in Granada, Spain which was an amazing year. Now I'm moving to Lille this September to teach English and work on my French.

PHILOSOPHY

'Take people as you find them'and 'What's for you won't go by you' interpret what you will

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hoping to be able to host once I find somewhere to live in Lille.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's a brilliant way to meet people! I've had housemates and friends who have been really into couchrurfing and have met some great people through them. Especially when I studied abroad, I met some great people, and some good friends, through couchsurfing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Woody Allen, especially his recent films. I enjoy a good romantic comedy (but there are some seriously bad ones out there. I can't stand Adam Sandler and I think Zoolander is a work of genius. Big fan of Will Ferrell and Ben Stiller.
Books: The Hunger Games, Divergent Trilogy, We were liars, Eleanor and Park. Yes, these are mostly children's books, I do read other things I swear :P
Music. lots of stuff, too much to list here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Norwegian midnight sun, it never gets dark, it's insane!

Teach, Learn, Share
