About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an intermittently bearded student who loves travelling, meeting people and learning their languages, and eating and drinking as well as I can manage. I like books and music and jokes and theatre and museums and libraries and getting very excited.

PHILOSOPHY

Eat the peach.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I had a great couchsurfing experience in Italy, and now I'd like to help other people by showing them around Dublin and doing fun things.

Interests

History, theatre, languages, literature, comedy, listening to and playing music (I'm a shower baritone), cooking, eating, drinking.

I also enjoy Birkenstocks, old guidebooks, cafés, accents, guitars, accordions, and getting pleasantly lost.

I love cats. If I'm travelling, I inevitably come home with photos of sights, and photos of cats. It just happens.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I thought about this for a while, and couldn't think of anything. Then I realised that it's because I've been blessed with a life full of amazing sights and events. I hope to continue just like this.

Teach, Learn, Share

In Dublin, I've worked as a tour guide and I love talking about my country's history. I'd be delighted to show you the sights!

I'm mad about languages and always interested in doing conversation exchanges. Or if you'd like to learn a little bit of Irish (especially useful if you're going west) then I could certainly be of use!

I always want to learn languages, so please teach me! Equally, I think one of the best things you can learn from a culture is its cooking. So if you can help me to cook up a traditional meal, I'd be thrilled.

I love music, and I'm always delighted to sing or play with a group.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Canada, France, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, United Kingdom
