Hi, I'm Colm! I'm from Ireland, but I've been living in Vancouver for the last year. I like reading, writing, playing sport and the guitar (usually not at the same time), and exploring new places!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's always a positive experience to meet new people and listen to their stories, and from past experiences I've found that staying with locals is often best way to explore a city!
