About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi folks, I'm a 26-year-old Irish journalist currently seeking my fortune on Canadian shores. I'm pretty outgoing, good for a laugh and a joke and hugely interested in other people - particularly if they can tell me outrageous stories I can then pass off as my own.

PHILOSOPHY

In vino veritas. Except when it's not.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Willing to host, hoping to be hosted

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Meet a bunch of people my room mate has hosted. All super nice, and generally brought wine which is always awesome.

Interests

Reading, skiing, cooking, drinking (not all at the same time, thankfully), travelling, live music, hiking, cinema, occasionally playing board games with a healthy competitive edge and singing to dance music in the kitchen.

Music, Movies, and Books

Again, ALL THE THINGS. You name it, I probably have an opinion about it, whether or not I can back it up. Legitimate criticism, be damned! Currently listening to Crystal Fighters. Reading a book on the Irish economy called Show Time. Watching A Cabin In The Woods.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most recently, the sight of the stars in Algonquin Park left me awestruck. Other than that, moments when the sheer volume of awe left me flattened include my first time skiing off-piste (someone from the chairlift yelled down "Yeah! Freerider!) and Jason McAteer's goal against Holland to send Ireland to the 2002 World Cup.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share a fantastic recipe for Irish Coffee, and some pretty cool legends and myths from my home place, along with THE GREATEST GAMES NIGHT GAME EVER: Fireblade. Come. Stay. Play. Everyone I have ever met has loved it.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Cambodia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States, Zimbabwe

Countries I’ve Lived In
