ABOUT ME

Born in Belfast. Grew up in Belfast. Got the HELL out of there at 19 to travel Central America where I caught the travel bug (the good one!). Since then I've visited Thailand, North America, South America, Canada, South Africa, inter-railed around Europe and pretty much get off the island of Ireland as much as possible!
Im currently living in Vienna, Austria and studying for a masters degree.
Love going home of course, but I have itchy feet and wanderlust. I'm pretty open minded. I'm also super friendly and will talk to ANYONE. I also believe that everyone deserves respect and kindness

PHILOSOPHY

I believe strongly in Karma, everything you do will eventually come back to you in some way, so treat others how you would like to be treated. And everyone deserves kindness, regardless of past mistakes. Live and Let Live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet like minded people and explore cities with a local!

Interests

Travelling!!... Of course. I also love to cook and I love filling, tasty comfort food, so if I stay with you I can repay you by cooking nice veggie meals!

I am also a qualified beer sommelier and used to work for the most famous Irish beer company...

Music, Movies, and Books

Quentin Tarentino films, Guy Richie films, almost anything with Jason Stadham, Al Pacino or Morgan Freeman in them. I love the Dexter books, the Bronte sisters' classics, George Orwell and the more contemporary Colin Bateman, Zadie Smith, Margaret Atwood and Ben Elton.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as a tour guide in the beautiful islands of San Blas, Panama, where I got to learn a lot about the native people who live on and govern the islands. I started to learn a little of their language (mostly we communicated in Spanish) and made amazing friends who I really miss.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a little about most things, a lot about some things, but everything of nothing! I know a good bit about vegetarianism, animals, the environment, beer, coffee, feminism, some histories, religions of the world, psychology. I like to observe. I like to learn from others. However I also like a good debate!
