About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning the Tao Te Ching by heart, not spending too much money

ABOUT ME

Hello there, I'm a 30 year-old translator from Cork, Ireland. At the moment, my girlfriend and I are preparing for the apple harvest, which will be in another month. This means building another shed, getting demi-johns and all sorts of gear for brewing, and... finishing the compost toilet, for starters.

PHILOSOPHY

Avoid having a personal philosophy at all costs, for a start!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've never actually couchsurfed, but I have stayed on plenty of couches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had no experience up to now, but a lot of experience just staying in random peoples' houses... the music does that.
