About Me

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm an English teacher and have been living in Spain for a few years now and have no plans to leave anytime soon.
I enjoy meeting new people and groups, going out and having the craic.

PHILOSOPHY

Well this is kinda a borrowed philosophy. (I will add my own when ive got a little more time)
Castar na daoine ar a chéile, ach ní chastar na cnoic (ná na sléibhte).

The people encounter one another, but the hills never meet (nor the mountains).

It is a little bit ironic. The hills have all of the time in the world and spend their entire existence close to each other, but never get to mix with each other. Although we(people) have little time it can be spent in each others company. People one, mountains nil.
