CURRENT MISSION

To be a Marine Scientist

ABOUT ME

I am a 32 year old Irish guy (so as friendly and sociable as most Irish people!) who is currently studying Marine Science at university in Southampton, England. Next year i will be studying in Oslo, Norway. I love traveling and meeting new people.

I currently live in a beautiful part of Northern Ireland (or rather my mum does) with loads of room for fellow couchers (if i happen to be there too of course).

PHILOSOPHY

Liberal, agnostic and easy going; if it stresses you out it's not worth it.
