About Me

Hey! My name is Kevin & I’m currently taking a leap of faith to travel the world!

Last summer right after graduating university, I started solo traveling & traveled all around the states, parts of Canada, Iceland & France. I absolutely loved it!

Currently I’m spending time in South Africa with my family until the end of May, and afterwards I’m starting my working holiday in Dublin!

To me, transparency & vulnerability is a quintessential component of humans truly connecting with each other. I have never done anything like this before.

My life is in two backpacks now, and I am a little nervous to start a new life away from the states. My long term goal after a year in Ireland is to get on with an international airline company and become a flight attendant!

But for the time being I’d like to use Dublin as a home base to work & then travel all across Europe. I am anxious, but what excites me is opportunity, what excites me is the uncertainty, and all of the experiences & growth that will happen along the way. I trust myself, I trust others, and I am very open to new experiences, trying new things, and I love meeting new people and being completely outside of my comfort zone!

But that’s enough about me for now - text can’t convey emotion like face to face communication can, and whoever I am with, I would love to get to know all about you because connecting is what keeps us human and together.

-Kev

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

“The very basic core of a mans living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.” ~ Christopher McCandless

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time in University I started a career mid way through! I trusted my intuition - I resigned, chose happiness, trusted myself and now I’m off to travel the world!

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to be a certified personal trainer! I love helping others with their fitness goals, whether it be for nutrition or exercise.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m a goofy person at heart! I also feel like I’m a good listener. I have nothing but time!

When I’m with you, I am present. I’m not thinking about what I did yesterday, or what I’m doing tomorrow - I feel like when you are with someone, they deserve your undivided attention and attentiveness to the present moment, simply because, well, that’s the right thing to do, yeah?

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, France, Iceland, Philippines, South Africa, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

South Africa, United States
