Interests

I love travelling, socialising, music, going to concerts and festivals, surfing, swimming, sailing, Irish music(I play the bodhran badly!), drinking heaps of Guinness and talking nonsense, djing(I also play the 1's and 2's a bit), composing music, craft beer, cooking, walking, camping, kayaking, running, attempting to dance, photography, reading, and a heap of other stuff that I can't think of right now...
