Overview
About Me
I recently graduated from Trinity College in Dublin. I studied business management, and before this Business and Economics at Trinity too.
Now hoping to move to London, so decided to move to here for three weeks (15th Nov - 6th Dec 2022).
I love traveling and have visited and lived in a few places, spent a summer in Vancouver with friends, and spent 7 months in South East Asia solo traveling.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I would like to meet cool people, and after staying in hostels for a very long time and meeting amazing people, this was recommended to me so many times.
Interests
- photography

Music, Movies, and Books
Books:
Alchemist and Shoe Dog.
Music:
My close friends slag me for my music taste, but I love hip-hop (Nujabes) and music with no words, so sort of deep house / electronic (Bicep, Four Tet). I also like foreign music where I don't understand the words.
I am open minded and love discovering new music through friends and weekly recommended on Spotify.
Movies:
Don't watch that much films lately, but seen Watcher in cinema recently and enjoyed it.
TV-Shows:
Game Of Thrones - Fun fact I met Jack Gleeson (King Joffrey) and he was a legend in real life.
