I come from a land of storytellers but true to that famous Irish charm, I can't make a long story short! What does that even mean? Well, as my friends would tell you, I love to talk. But the truth is I love listening: meeting new people, hearing about their lives and hopefully learning something new from each interaction.

I'm originally from Belfast but I've been in Spain now for 6 years and speak the language.

I have recently moved to Mallorca to be closer to nature. l love life and being out and about and try to live with a positive mindset as best I can. I live with my best mate and two gorgeous cats.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to use CS to meet people who can give me an insight to the country I'm visiting and who will impact my trip. When I host, it's because I want to share my world with others and give people a friendly place to stay. I hope to continue meeting open-minded people with a passion for travel, discovery, and enlightening conversation.

Interests

I love being outside: by the beach, swimming in the sea in any kind of weather, going for walks and hikes. I'm also quite sporty and like to keep active.
I come from an Arts degree and so I'm into art, going to plays, poetry and spoken word events, museums, as well as discovering new cultural experiences!
While I enjoy going out to party, particularly where there's live music, I also really love the atmosphere of being with your friends and playing a few games over some drinks.
