Hey! I'm from Waterford, Ireland. I am in my final year of college in Maynooth. I love travelling and meeting new people! I’m especially interested in outdoor activities and sports, but also love cultural events (e.g. cooking / baking local dishes, traditional and modern music events, arts and crafts, local activities). I’m currently training to become a primary school teacher but travel or work and travel in my free time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet locals to get a more authentic experience of the places I visit. I also learn so much from encounters with new people and am hoping to become the best version of myself by meeting new people from different backgrounds and cultures.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning languages, even if it’s just a few simple phrases! I can teach some English, Irish or german too. I can also teach the basics in guitar. I can share recipes, for example German Christmas cookies, share experiences and share some adventures!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer you an insight into how I see the world. I am always open to trying new things, so we can go on an adventure together!
