Irish-born, a lover of all things chocolate, dangerous with a pen. I particularly love books, travel and music.

Other things that I enjoy:

- Fiction
- The flavor mint
- Almost all genres of music
- Neil Gaiman
- Open-mindedness

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet the world and everyone in it.

Interests

I love to read! My favorites are Murakami, Neil Gaiman, King and Tolkien. Otherwise, I'm usually listening to blues/rock/classical/piano etc., I also love to play guitar.

Music, Movies, and Books

Top threes in no order :

Movies: The Prestige, The Usual Suspects, anything with Robin Williams.

Music: Blues, Rock, anything with a piano in it (the more paino the better)

Books: Anything Tolkien, The Sandman (technically a comic), actually this is a really hard question...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working with the destitute and impoverished on the outskirts of Bosnia is, to date, the best experience of my life. We delivered vital food supplies and medicine to utterly abandoned regions, the relics of the Bosnian war, where chronic health problems, extreme poverty and age prevented those who live there from leaving their abandoned villages and mountainous confines. Many worked into their 80's in order to support their brothers or sisters who, as a result of age, arthritis, cataracts or diabetes, could no longer support themselves.

It was an experience that opened my eyes to a great deal of things.

Teach, Learn, Share
