About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Everyday is a new mission.
ABOUT ME
I'm a human born and bred in Dublin, Ireland. I dream about one day of settling in a peaceful and beautiful farm, living off the land and off the grid. Until then I am following an adventurous calling from my heart and immersing myself in travel! I have found many great friends and experiences through volunteering/Wwoofing in Italy and in Spain and throughout my travels in Europe. I believe that these escapades have helped shape and define me as a person.
I lived in Indonesia for a year and moved back to Ireland to establish my own small self-run building business.
Recently, I've been making my money in Euros then running away from Ireland to avoid winters. In doing so, Brazil has become somewhat of a surprise second home.
I enjoy making structures with my hands, growing vegetables, playing and composing music, cooking, a hard-day's virtuous physical labour, and long nights of partying hard! I also dabble in writing and art.
PHILOSOPHY
Don't believe the hype
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven't been participating, for a number of years, as I quite simply haven't had a couch to offer.. That will change though, one day.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
An all round fantastic concept which benefits the budget traveler immensely. Not only does it bring people together, but it opens up global friendship and hospitality in a whole new way. I am happy to be a part of the international CS community!

Music, Movies, and Books
Traditional music from around the world, Waits, Cave & Callahan, lots of weird shit. Live music is the best! I love all kinds of books. Recently completed Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace, which I'd now say is the best book I've ever devoured.
