I feel I am easy going, I love conversation and hearing people's stories. I am living with my two teenagers, Saira and Naoise, they are the most awesome people I have ever met. We also share our home with Kevin, Sami, Louis and Luca, the cats. I would love to give my kids the opportunity of a different cultural experience. We hosted Workaway and Wwoofers for years and met many wonderful people. We love to chat! Its a 5 minute walk to the sea and 2 hours drive from Cork city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with more people. I have hosted for years and now travelling occasionally and looking to meet people and share stories

Interests

I'm a musician and I love to collaborate and play with others. I also practice Tae Kwon Do and martial arts is a huge part of our lives. Myself and my son recently took up Kung Fu too and now we are hooked! I have practiced BJJ and Capoeira and would like to try more. We love conversation, our house is usually full of teenagers, so if you're looking for peace and quiet, this may not suit you but if you're looking to engage, they have fascinating minds and could easily challenge you to a game of chess, cards or Streetfighter!
