I grew up in Dublin with my Dutch/Irish family. I have graduated from college with a music degree and I am just back from travelling for the year with my boyfriend, Benedict! We have travelled through Central amd South America. Travelling is my passion, alongside music. We were super fortunate to be able to combine both of these things. We are travelling musicians, I guess! I love learning languages too. I lived in Belgium for one year studying music, which was where I fell in love with other cultures. Couchsurfing has been the highlight of this trip for me, and I'm really excited to host people this year in Utrecht!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't particularly remember the hostels I have stayed in, but I will never forget my couchsurfing experiences!
This year is a dream come true, and it is made mostly by the people I have been meeting through couch surfing. So far, we have been using my boyfriends account (Benedict Robinson), but I wanted to make my own account so that I can host when I live in the Netherlands next year. Seeing cities through a locals eye has been priceless. We love going off the beaten track, or the 'Gringo highway', as we have christened it. We have made lifelong friends as we have travelled, sometimes extending our stay because we have enjoyed the company so much.

Music, Movies, and Books

PINK FLOYD!!
Alice Phoebe Lou, Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Beethoven, Brahms, Babe Rainbow, Fleetwood Mac - I could go on forever.

I'm not a massive movie or TV person - I fall asleep too quickly to get to the end of most of them! Some that come to mind though are Parasite and Peep Show.

I adore reading but do have an admission to make... I have never read or seen Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings... don't judge me too harshly...
