Smiley, friendly, chilled out. Used to live in Dublin but moved to Clare before th3 summer and so happy to call it home. Love to be sociable and meet people from different countries, have interesting conversations and make great food for friends. Love to surf and anything sea related. Environmentalist and help with local community and farm projects. Love to travel and chat and socialise for hours but equally crave my downtime, reading, cooking, chilling and taking the all important nap!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Wanted to be on CS for years but never really had a place of my own. Now when I travel and stay with other couchsurfers, I won't feel so guilty because I'll have a place for others to stay with me in stunning west Clare!

Music, Movies, and Books

Tough call. Music: Blues, folk, latin. Think Slim Harpo, BB King, Nina Simone, Joni Mitchell, Red Hot Chillies, Black Sabbath, Led Zep and Ye Vagabonds. Endless variety.

Where I lack in musical snobbery, I make up for in film. As Indie and obscure as possible, foreign preferably, with Cohen bros and Tarantino thrown in.

David Sedaris, Alan Watts, Hunter S Thompson, Anthony Bourdain, Clarrisa Pinkola Estes
