Big friendly irish man who enjoys potatoes, whiskey and singing sad songs about returning home. I've been travelling and living and working in Australia, new zealand and canada for the past 5 years after graduating university in Scotland . During my travels i have enjoyed many hikes, camping, scuba diving, fishing, surfing, mountain biking, concerts, art exhibitions, international food markets, comedy festivals and more. On a daily basis I read, i play guitar and i keep fit. i love meeting new people and i am always ready to learn something new!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

meeting local people is awesome, and without doubt one of the best ways to learn about a new place on short trips!
