Aspiring explorer, lover of nature, converted my van last year to travel Ireland and soak in the beauty of my own country. Plan to travel further afield at the end of this year and move abroad.

I am a Social Care Worker in Residential Services, assisting adults living with intellectual disabilities . I also facilitate yoga classes as a passion of mine. I studied Third Level education as a mature student in Arts and Humanities, major: Psychology, minor: Philosophy. Passionate about mental health and what helps so if you're happy to have open, non-judgemental conversations about same, it would greatly interest me. Likewise, if you would rather not, we could explore other interests too.

House and Techno music enthusiast, festivals come with that territory!
*Currently in Mannheim 🇩🇪 for Time Warp Festival 👽 30th anniversary 🎊

Festival fun planned in Ireland:

May: Éalu Le Grá (small independent) - Galway

August: Electric Picnic (70,000) - Stradbally

September: Fuinneamh (small independent) mainly Techno and PSY Trance - Dundalk

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

'There are always destinations in which the traveler is unaware.'

My plans to travel at the end of the year have encouraged me to start hosting until that time comes. I love meeting new people and hearing about their life's adventures.
