About Me

I grew up in Ireland, but have spent the last 15 years in the US, Spain, Mexico, Bahrain, and now Salvador, Brazil.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have slept on lots of couches, and had lots of friends sleep on my couches, sometimes through couchsurfing and sometimes not. Have really enjoyed meeting people in different places through couch surfing. For me, meeting local people is the most fun and meaningful part, more important than the actual couch.

I am looking forward to hosting some interesting people visiting Salvador, and maybe meet up with other couchsurfers on my own travels.
