About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I just want to learn and have a bit of fun while the going's good :)

ABOUT ME

I just like being happy. I love meeting interesting people and my favourite is when I realise something that I had always assumed to be one way can actually be another way. I love art galleries and museums but also outdoor sports like hiking, cycling and especially kayaking. I enjoy cooking but much prefer baking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined couch surfing a couple of years ago then got buried in my degree but have since resurfaced and am ready to take a bigger part in the community.

Interests

I try to fill my free time with as much as possible. I'm only in Buenos Aires for a year so my goal is to explore the city and its history from top to bottom.

Music, Movies, and Books

Shakespeare is definitely a favourite, Oscar Wilde is so funny, and Sean O'Casey has some brilliant plays as well. De los autores españoles me gustan García Lorca y la poesía de Bécquer también es muy romantica :)Y García Marquez, cien años de soledad me encanta!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ice climbing in Alaska is one experience that will always stay with me. Looking up at the sky from inside a crevass and knowing the only person who can get you out is you, was terrifying but really empowering. There's also something about the light reflecting on the glacial ice that can't be captured on camera. It's almost as though the light comes from inside the glacier...

Teach, Learn, Share

Bhuel tá an gaelige agam mar sin tá mé in ann a mhúineadh duit beagánín má ba mhaith leat. I can speak a bit of Irish so for anyone who likes languages it's quite different to a lot of European languages...
