I've just rebooted couchsurfing after about ten years and my old bio-

The most important things in life are
1. LEARNING and
2. ROCK N ROLL.

-still stands!

I am an artist, poet, comic artist, filmmaker and musician. I love music, the sea, animals, art and nature. If you come to Dublin I'd love to share some of the music and arts scene and some of the beautiful natural wonders, and get you to dip in the bollock-scaldingly cold sea for a once in a lifetime REFRESHING experience.

I also love to meet people to sing and play music with or to rollerskate with! Can hook you up with the rollerskating and/or music scenes in Dublin, or even better the musical rollerskating roller musicskating scene...

Very queer friendly, you are warmly invited show up as your gayest self.

I only host cis male surfers who have host references. Thanks for understanding.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am finally in a position to host couchsurfers so I want to repay the kindness that has been shown me along the way and share the joy of my lovely town by the beach in Dublin! Please note I have two fluffy roommates. (Kittycats).

I am also looking for people to stay with or hang out with in Nashville, Memphis, L.A. and Atlanta this October.
Would love to meet musicians in particular in Nashville and Memphis :)
And I'd love to meet someone to take a roadtrip down the Mississipi Delta!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Nearly got sucked through a wormhole into another dimension by the raving and shimmering Aurora Borealis! Up a hill in Northern Iceland.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can show you round Dublin if I'm at home. I love my city and if you're into literature and can show you all the spots associated with great Irish writers and bring you to see some new great Irish writers if there are any events on while you're here. I play guitar and sing so maybe we could play some music. And I can teach you some Irish if you're up to the challenge. And we can go swimming bollock naked in the holy sea.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I finally have a spare room! I can offer you a bed! I can get you free into the Book of Kells if you're into that...many are.
