CURRENT MISSION

To meet fun and interesting people in Dublin: both travellers AND locals

ABOUT ME

I've just moved over to Dublin from the UK.

PHILOSOPHY

"€œLife should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"

- Hunter S. Thompson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We're happy to host, but the next couple of months are a bit hectic (family visiting and work deadlines). I'll update this when things chill out a bit. In the meantime, I'm happy to meet for coffee/drinks and do my best to show you the city (unless you already live here, in which case maybe you could show ME a few things!).
