Hello everyone

My name is Manuela. I'm 35 years old living in Ireland for the last 10 years.

I love travelling and meeting people. I also like doing tourist stuff but my main point of interest when travelling is meeting people and local culture. I want to learn from everyone what's the best food, what's the best drink, what's that cool place where tourists never go but where they do that special kind of food that everyone loves.

I love getting mixed with people, all kinds, all backgrounds. We always have something to learn from everyone.

I love being outdoors. Throw me off a cliff and I'll be fine, but don't even try to bring me to deep water. That's way too scary!

I enjoy the odd pint and a good dancing night. I suck at it but hey, I'm having fun !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I am travelling alone I thought this is the easiest way of meeting people and learning about the culture, food, people from the horse's mouth.
