About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Put my notions in to motion :)

ABOUT ME

I grew up on a small island in south west Ireland. I studied International development. I'm very relaxed and easy going and get on with most people :) I smiiiiiiile!

Since graduating from university I have lived in the small thriving town of Clonakilty in West Cork, Ireland with my boyfriend and our dog.

PHILOSOPHY

Being easy going and having a positive attitude makes life easy :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Had my first CS experience in Portugal and it was BRILLIANT. Now I am settled I would like to start accepting guests here too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I mostly enjoyed finding out about other peoples way of life by spending time in their home, cooking for my host, and generally hangin' with the locals.. I have couch surfed in Portugal and Croatia. No matter where I go, life falls in to place and I get to meet amazing people. Life is Amazing!

Interests

I like being outside on warm summer evenings and on windy autumn days..my favourite place is by the sea! I love being by the sea, in the sea and on the sea!! Travelling, star gazing, exploring by bicycle, and sailing are all great things in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Folk? Mumford and Sons, Manu Chau, Bon Iver, Crystal Castles..i like most types of music really..from "chart music", acoustic to swing to reggae, electronic.. I just love music gigs dancing singing everything musical!!!!
My favourite book is Half the Sky by Nicholas D. Kristof. He's an amazing NYT journalist who writes about the IMPORTANT things that are happening in the world. Or at least what I think is important

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed to Norway with my dad,and to Cornwall (from Ireland), volunteered in Ghana for a month, had an inspiring time hanging out with school kids in Lesotho when I was 15, stood where Keira Knightley stood on Stanage Edge in England - its breathtaking!!! and grew up in West Cork one of the many beautiful places in this world! Worked in Tanzania, East Africa for 6 months too.

Teach, Learn, Share

Music is something I can both share and wanna learn. I'd like to try my hand at playing and going to see local music. Live music is life.
