I am currently traveling South America with the aim of learning Spanish and meeting new and interesting people. I have been here since November.

I was born in east Galway (Ireland) into a rural area called Tynagh. I grew up on a small farm with cattle, sheep, horses and at times, donkeys. I moved to Dublin 2008 to study and I have been here since. While studying I worked in different pubs around the city to fund myself. Having graduated from my MSc I'm now working as an engineer.
I like to have relatively sensible fun mid week or rest and on the weekends I like to enjoy myself on nights out or trips away.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new, like minded and interesting people. I like to experience the local side of things when I travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a big mix when it comes to music - rock, electronic, folk, hip hop, trad, metal...
Some movies that have made an impression on me are spirited away, there will be blood and no country for old me.
When it comes to books I lean towards educational/fact based stuff. That said I dont read a whole lot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled 180km in a day for charity

Teach, Learn, Share

Iv worked in bars over a seven year period so Iv a good insight into nightlife in Dublin that can share. As well as general tour advice for the city and other parts of Ireland.
I like to cook so breakfast on the weekend is definitely on the cards.

I play guitar so I'm happy to teach you a lick or two.
