Hi! I'm Michael, I work as a freelance motion designer (basically I draw pretty pictures on the computer), you can see some of my work here: www.tierney.tv

I also give talks on time management, design and minimalism. Since 2017 I’ve lived in over 20 countries whilst living out of a 30L backpack taking inspiration from new countries and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to make new friends as I travel. I'm always happy to share skills and knowledge, grab a drink, explore a new place or just simply have a game of Monopoly Deal :)
