CURRENT MISSION

Finish my PhD in Irish literature and cultural studies.

ABOUT ME

I am postgrad, I love traveling and Cs is probably the coolest way to do it; it helps at meeting new and foreign people, discover other way of life, exchanging and so on...

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy this now simpler life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Show pple around, give travel tips, attend CS meetings when I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I once hosted a band of 6 guys from my own country, unfortunately I couldn't really take care of them or make them visit the town but I offered them a place to sleep after their show.

I hosted 3 Irish guys in my former apartment, gave them the keys and helped a bit in the beginning of their holidays (had to go to Slovenia then).

Since I moved to Edinburgh, I attended most Wednesday CS meetings and had the privilege to organise them in the summer 2015.
I then also hosted a bunch of people in my flat by the harbour between November and December 2015.

I attended most CS event in Berlin in November 2016, I tried to attend them in Lille between 20172019 and now in London!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some French, give good reading-watching-listening advice to improve level and interest and I can explain plenty about French history, politics, administrative institutions (fascinating-_-) and legal-system.

I'm now well acquainted with English and Scottish History and Politics fun-facts about Edinburgh and its surroundings. I'm obviously fluent in English so I give tips on how to get there. ^^ It's the first key.

I'd like to learn Hindi one day.
