About Me

ABOUT ME

Hey! I'm 27 and I come from a small village in West Wicklow called Grangecon. I'm mad for exploring places, meeting new people and combining those two things to try and understand and enjoy this beautiful world that we live in!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of the best ways to explore somewhere is to be guided by someone who is living in the area. It is also a lovely way of making new friends throughout the world

Interests

I love to be outside! Forests, mountains and the beach especially. I also enjoy football, reading, music and yoga

  • writing
  • environment
  • traveling
  • backpacking
  • sports
  • soccer
  • beaches

Music, Movies, and Books

Such a hard section.

Music: Anything that can either make me move my feet or else feel something

Movies: Shawshank, Gladiator, The Godfather, Lord of The Rings, The Departed...so many, it goes on and on

Books: Catcher in the Rye, Lord of the Rings, To Kill a Mockingbird, anything by Cormac McCarthy and Shantaram

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Mt. Roraima in Venezuela, one of the most amazing, beautiful places I hve ever been. It felt like being on a different planet at the top. It is a truly special place, the mountain holds a real spiritual power that is bound to stir even the most sedate person in the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

"And me? I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it's not some place you can look for. Because it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something. And if you find that moment... It lasts forever. "

A quote from the movie The Beach, which really inspired me to travel, and now that I have been to amazing places with incredible people I understand this quote so much more.

What I Can Share with Hosts
